I know what does not! My hands only in tight places on dry tube and hose.
I am under the tank trying to fit a hose to the SS 10mm feed line to the back of the car. The line moves while I push the hose on and it is dry, I only get a quarter inch on before it all stops. I have good cohline hose in the proper metric size. Tight spaces and the hose and line make it challenging. So can I add some lube? What kind won't hurt the hose. Any tools to use? I have resisted getting pliers out so far. Getting frustrated. Time and distance break from the project for a while. |
