Hi group,

Any problem fitting up steel to Aluminum fittings in the fuel system? I have an area with a hose that has a steel fitting mating up with my tank fitting that is Aluminum.

Thanks,

Jeff
 
Generally, there isn't any problem connecting the two unless the hose is subject to vibration, like all your firewall forward fittings. In areas where there is consistent vibration, you're safer to replace the aluminum fitting with a steel one to eliminate the chance of fracturing the aluminum fitting.

If you're aft of the firewall, you should be fine.
