T use fuel fittings (main body) made of brass, copper, zinc, zinc plated or galvanized steel where it would
make direct contact with flowing diesel fuel. Diesel fuel flowing through these types of fittings allows those metals
to leach into the fuel forming deposits on the injector tips which fouls them prematurely. Fuel fitting nuts,
compression sleeves, and fuel line connectors made of brass are acceptable because diesel fuel does not flow
across their surfaces.
