Can someone help me out? I received an EE catch can with braided SS hosing. Just about every example I've seen online is making use of the existing hosing. Not sure how I'm supposed to connect the frayed end portion of the tubing to the manifold and the other end.

I also have 2 pressure fittings, 4 tube clamps, 2̶ ̶o̶-̶r̶i̶n̶g̶s̶
1 rubber o-ring, 2 washers, and 2 90 degree bent fittings. Are these supposed to be used? or is it just alternatives? Plus, I have no idea what the washers are for...

EDIT: Sorry, I'm guessing the rubber o-ring is just extra. what are the 2 washers for?

They are to keep the Nuts from coming loose where you attach the CC. There are videos showing you how to install the CC . You might want to watch them if you're asking what the lock washers are for .

Worked that out. Problem... the tubing on the inlet side is too short. Significantly.
