    The aft/instrument panel ends of the primer lines connecting onto the primer pump take a little bead and nut. When the nut is tightened onto the primer port it squeezes the nut onto the copper line. Not sure if they come on the primer perhaps? It has been a while since I have installed one new.

    It appears the part numbers are HDW-50915K611 (COMPRESSION FITTING SLEEVE, FITS 1/8” OD TUBE) and HDW-50915K121 (COMPRESSION FITTING NUT, FITS 1/8” OD TUBE) Those are CC part numbers.

    That is from the CC11-160 Parts Catalog chapter 28 Fuel items 47,48 on the inset drawing of the primer shown on page 37. The Parts Catalog can be found on the customer support page at cubcrafters.com or linked directly here.

    I cannot find those parts in my finish kit inventory. Are those parts, Sleeve/Nuts and the copper fuel line, included in the EX2 Kit or are they obtainable from CubCrafters?

    They were included in my EX2 kit. If I recall, the parts were in a misc. box., hard to find.

    Installation was via the Firewall Forwrd kit.

    I found it! Thank you Dan!


    The routing isn’t very clear, but I should be fine.
    Any picture or diagram showing the routing would be appreciated.

    I'm installing the fuel primer lines on my EX. Should I use a thread sealer like EZ Turn or Loctite 567 while installing the copper compression fittings at the primer, gascolator or engine?
