Jiffy-tite Carburetor Kits

JTconnect.jpgDripping fuel, scarred up fittings and time-consuming wrenching can make installing a carburetor a real pain.  Why make installing and testing more work than it has to be? The Jiffy-tite Quick-Connect Carburetor Kit saves time and makes changeovers a breeze.  Unlike an old fashioned threaded fitting set-up, this innovative kit allows you to connect or disconnect the fuel line(s) in seconds with no tools.  There’s absolutely no wrenching required for a high flow, 100% leak proof seal.

To connect, simply pull the socket collar back and insert the male plug on the fuel line.  Then release the collar.  Just listen for the click and the carb is ready to go.  Disconnect with a simple pull on the collar and the valve design keeps the fuel safe inside the line, and without having to drain your fuel bowl.

 The unique, patented Quick-Connect design works with most of the popular high-performance carburetor applications on the market.  Designed to be lightweight for race applications, Jiffy-tite Carburetor Kits are sold standard-valved in either AN size 6 or 8, with aluminum washers, and are available to work with 7/8” x 20, 9/16” x 24 and 5/8” x 20 applications in a variety of adaptive styles. Viton® (Fluorocarbon) seals are standard, however, for alcohol and methanol applications, Buna N (Nitrile) seals and EPDM seals are available.

Jiffy-tite® Quick-Connect Fluid Fittings

 FuelReg.jpg

In racing, it is absolutely mandatory that the fuel pressure regulator provides stable and proper fuel pressure to the carburetor, especially under extreme conditions.  Until recently, changing out a regulator, or testing the fuel supply with traditional fittings required dealing with leaky dripping fuel lines, and then making sure the fittings are properly torqued.   The quicker, easier solution is to use Jiffy-tite® Quick Connect Fluid Fittings provide a safe leak-proof seal and unsurpassed performance even under the most extreme racing conditions; allowing changeovers or checks to the fuel to occur in seconds, not minutes.

jiffy.gifMade of lightweight, 6061-T6 aluminum, brass valves, and stainless steel ball bearings, they are corrosion resistant for long life and feature a ribbed collar that provides a slip-proof grip. Now available in a stealth black finish, Jiffy-tite fittings are one of the most technologically advanced fittings on the market today. These fittings exceed flow requirements specific to each application and connect in half the time of competitive products. 

Jiffy-tite Quick-Connect Fluid Fittings are also available in straight, 90º, or 45º elbow configuration for those hard to reach areas in a wide variety of thread styles to meet your every needs. Jiffy-tite fittings are designed to replace any fitting in any location.

Jiffy-tite® Quick-Connect Fluid Fittings

plugs.jpg Nothing can be more catastrophic or scary when racing than a fuel flame-up, or a serious hot fluid burn. That is why Jiffy-tite® Motorsports, manufacturer of easy to use Quick-Connect fluid fittings, has made safety a top priority. Designed by racers for racers, each fitting is individually tested for a leak free seal, even at 200 psi. Jiffy-tite’s unique high flow valve technology automatically interrupts the flow of fluid when disconnected to protect against hazardous leaks or potential hot fluid spills.

And with the introduction of Jiffy-tite’s full line of lanyard style fittings, these Quick-Connects can now be set up to disengage on impact. Unlike threaded fittings, which tend to shear on impact and cause leakage, Jiffy-tite’s lanyard equipped fittings stay intact and actually shut-off flow even when the fuel or oil pump continues to run.

Jiffy-tite Quick-Connect fittings are available for most fuel, oil, transmission and water applications, and are available in AN, NPT, standard, hose barb and push-to-lock for almost universal fitment. They connect and disconnect in seconds with no tools making turnaround quick, clean and safe, and are NHRA and IHRA approved, and SCCA accepted. Look for Jiffy-tite fittings on race cars all over the world, including the one driven by Pro Stock Champion, Warren Johnson.
