HOrnbrod Posted May 17, 2018 Share Posted May 17, 2018 I found this pic online of a clip that prevents fuel line quick connector from separating. They were on an XJ and were a factory part for 5/16" and 3/8" quick connectors. I've been looking through my parts manuals for them with no success. Anyone know the p/n or seen them before? I'd like to put them on all my fluid quick connectors. GM also makes a similar clip that would work. Anyone know a p/n or source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 apparently you can find them on trailblazers: https://www.ebay.com/i/263620637951?chn=ps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 located right up front where they are easy to grab at the junkyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 Thanks Pete-man. Your info enabled me to find the GM clips on Ebay HERE. I know I can find them cheaper with a little searching. They are supposed to fit both the 5/16" and 3/8" quick connectors. And the GM vehicles use the same type quick connectors that our MJs do. Should work fine for both fuel line and A/T fluid line connectors. Cheap insurance.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 glad it helped. I was getting frustrated that google wasn't finding any part numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HOrnbrod Posted May 18, 2018 Author Share Posted May 18, 2018 I had a an A/T transmission line blow off the radiator awhile back, my own fault I think because I didn't have the connector fully seated, and luckily I got off the road before any damage was done, besides the mess. I have the connectors safety wired for now, but these retaining clips will be great if they work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
