Abstract:
A fuel line assembly for an engine fuel system contains a length of nominally circular walled metal tube and a connecting fitting disposed on the tube proximate a terminus of the tube for making connection of an end of the tube containing the terminus to an engine fuel system component. The tube has a formation in a segment spaced from the terminus where the nominally circular wall has been re-formed to a non-circular oval cross section to provide an interference with the connecting fitting that prevents the fitting from sliding past the re-formation.
