I just installed my fpr kit with aeromotive fpr and push lock line kit. It seems to want to leak where the line goes on the fitting.

I pushed the line on as far as I can to where its flush with the little redish circle at the bottom of the fitting, am I supposed to crimp that fitting or how does that work.
 
No, there should be no crimping needed that is if you are using the correct push lock hose? If you are using a std rubber hose on a push lock fitting then you will need a clamp to seal it as the hose wasn't designed to seal with this type of fitting by itself. If it a push lock hose & fitting you should just be able to push the hose on till it bottoms out & thats it.
 
Well I did, and well it leaks. I bought the kit from slowboy.


Should I try and put a clamp on the push lock fitting as well. I don't know if im going to be able to get a clamp over it tho hhe.
