NX Fuel Switch Install (leak) ~ help please!

[shyvpboi]

I just installed the Fuel Pressure Safety Switch to the blue manifold connected to the fuel solenoid. The thing is that, when I start my car, I see fuel leaking from the connection, and I have tried to tighten everything. Should I use some kind of sealer even though the instructions says "no sealer is required on this A-N style fitting"? And one more thing, I haven't connected the electrical yet, is that maybe the problem?

All i can say is use a sealer that won't breakdown or disinegrate when petroleum (ur gasoline) is in contact with it. Teflon?? or Loctite???Look up stuff on the internet!!!

i used pipe tape on all my fittings

I had the same problems and I called NX. I was told to use the red sealer that came with the kit on all connections.

use teflon tape or lock tight(sp???) it should've come with it. if you have fuel coming out obviously it's not good!!!

And one thing that happened to me and luckly I wasn't far from a friend's house- is that the fuel line popped off. right where you tap into the fuel line with the "T" fitting...make sure to go to a 6mm hose and clamp that baby on there tight...it popped off on the way home from my friend's house, I was maybe 100 fight from her driveway when it happened and it dumped a ton of fuel onto the road but i drifted back to her driveway and fixed the problem. check your connection there as well :)
