AN PTFE Tool Help Questions...

[Loose Screw]

I'm really new to this and even my understanding of using the correct terms is not 100%, but I have been looking at PTFE fuel line for a while.

I have an Angle grinder and a Dremel, what wheels do I need?
Or, do I absolutely need to buy those bolt cutter looking snipers?

Also, what's the minimum I can get away with on an aluminum wrench (or two)?

Aaand do I need an aluminum adapter for my vise?

TIA

If you are careful, you can get away without aluminum tools with very good results. If you need a perfect look, invest in the correct tools.
I use the demel method. You just need metal cutoff wheels.
Don't go all the way through so you keep the inside clean. Finish with a single sided razor blade.
Harbor freight has a nice assortment kit that has lasted me years.

Here's what I do when building SS AN PTFE lines.
1. I use fine toothed hack saw to cut it clamped in my shop vise. I tape the line with black tape and cut in the middle. Blow out the line with compressed air.
2. Slide on the nut over the line.
3. Once cut I take a small flat bladed screw driver to the cut end and spread the SS covering away from the teflon a bit making it easy to slide on the "olive.
4. Seat the olive up to the notch inside the olive.
5. Then push the line over fitting and tighten the nut. Typically the PFTE fittings are steel not alum like regular -6 lines so regular wrenches are fine.
I only use the -6 PTFE for the pressure side of the power steering pump. For fuel lines and power steering pump return line I use standard -6 SS line.
I've never had one fail.

I posted on your other thread. I did get the vice clamps it is very useful and one aluminum crescent wrench. I did use these as well to attatch to the side of the frame. I drilled a slightly larger hole in frame where I wanted a clamp. Got longer allen screws, put the screw through the frame with a washer then used the clamp. It worked really well without breaking the bank.https://www.amazon.com/EVIL-ENERGY-S...80&sr=8-3&th=1

Forgot to add one thing.
After I slide on the "olive" and its seated I take a center punch and kind of seat the teflon in the olive so the fitting slides in easier.
