*HELP* best way to cut/assemble SS braided fuel line ??**

The end of the fitting that goes over the hose first has some coarse threads inside. That will help to thread the fitting over the braided cover. Be sure the hose is fully bottomed in that fitting before you try and thread in the inside half. Use a little Sil Glide or light oil to lube the inside of the hose and the inner fitting. this will aid in the install. Good luck!
