Hey Leon,

So this is what I was explaining that I have on my gauge now - which is how it came to me. The copper line behind the gauge has just as much copper line, if not more, under the dash as the engine bay. Which in the engine bay it has about the right amount with the 1 and 1/2 loops.

When I put the new line in, the engine side doesn't leak but the new male ferrule would leak between the fitting and line (at the gauge). I took the fitting as far as I felt comfortable with. So could this frankenstein setup of adaptors have messed up the gauge causing it not to seal with the proper male ferrule fitting?

Also, to add to this drama when I pulled the new line out of the gauge the fitting somehow slipped off and I cannot get it back on to try again. I was thinking perhaps I needed to re-adjust the line into the gauge. So I guess this all doesn't matter... ugh.

Edit:
Actually, looking at LostMy65 photo, perhaps I have a 3rd adapter? The black-ish nut, where the 1st of two brass adapter are connecting into? See re-uploaded photo with pretty colored/numbered boxes. I hadn't taken out what is outlined with the #1 Purple Box.
