Another dash bezel question
 
I am trying to replace the dash bezel on my 68. I have removed all the knobs, the speedometer cable, and the fuel cable connection. However, I am having a terrible time removing the oil pressure connection.

I ordered a new copper oil pressure cable http://www.classicparts.com/1947-77-...ctinfo/24-781/ and I am a bit confused on how the cable will stay connected. It seems the nut slides up and down the cable freely. how does the copper cable/pipe stay connected once the nut is screwed into the dash cluster? Do you have to bend the cable after you screw the nut in? Does the nut screw into a smaller opening that applies pressure to the line itself?

Does that make sense?

Slide the nut on and slide the feral on the feral will tighten on the line when you tighten the nut. The feral makes the connection leak proof
