CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Extreme caution on AN fittings especially Earl's

They call that obstruction a "flap", should always put the oposite ends near a light so you can see through the hose to look for that when making up a hose. If it has a 45 or 90 degree fitting, I always put that end on first, and look throgh from the other end. Angled fittings on both ends makes that a little harder to check after the second fitting is assembled. I have never had a problem with Earl's, but they may have changed them since I used them.
