Default Need quick help... AN Fuel line problem? leaking?

I bought a used fast-turbo.com fuel line (fuel filter to rail) off a fellow honda-tech'r with fuel rail and FPR. I installed everything today but the fitting are leaking. I cant find a picture of the line I have but...


this is not a fuel line but has a similier bend on the bottom of picture, left side fitting.

its not the blue piece that screews into the piece into the filter, its right after the bend the blue piece that screews onto the red piece that holds the line together. it is leaking from the top of the blue piece (where the blue aluminum line comes out of. how do I fix this? both of them are leaking, the 90? that comes off the filter and the 45? that goes to the rail. I need some quick input guys!

Thanks
Kyle

That is a 120 degree swivel fitting. If in fact it is leaking from that place that you pointed to, then you will have to buy a new one. Are you positive that it is not leaking at the point where the sleeve (the red part of the fitting) mates up with the aluminum bend (the blue part of the fitting).
