Hello, I have tried way too many types of fuel fittings and combinations (brass, aluminum, chromed, adapters, elbows, etc.) and they all tighten down at random angles but never at the desired angle. How are you guys getting your fittings to be perpendicular?
Both these fittings on my fuel regulator tighten past the desired angle and doesn't align with the carb inlet nor the fuel hard line:
I've used 90 degree swivel hose barbs for similar applications. You'll need a male/male adapter and the swivel barb. Google them and see if it will help.
...another is to use a fuel-resistant thread sealer and only tighten the fitting until it suits the position you want without over-tightening. They don't have to be muscled...
