Tool

Evil Energy automotive tools is built around one job: getting AN fitting connections tight, straight, and leak-free without wrecking the finish on your fuel line hardware. Every wrench here is an adjustable AN wrench, sized to cover a range of fitting sizes — anywhere from 3AN up to 20AN depending on the model — so you're not stocking a separate spanner for every hose end on your build. Whether you're plumbing a full LS swap, running new fuel line and PTFE hose, or just snugging up a fuel filter bracket, these are installation tools shaped specifically for 37° AN flare hardware, not repurposed from a general mechanic's set.

Why a Standard Wrench Isn't the Right Call on AN Fittings

Open-end and adjustable crescent wrenches are built for hex bolts, not the thinner aluminum flats on AN fittings. Jaws that don't match the flat spacing round off the corners, and bare steel jaws scratch anodized or plated finishes on contact. Our AN fitting tools solve this with jaws pre-set to true AN hex dimensions, and options with interchangeable hex-and-flat nylon jackets that grip the fitting without marking it up — worth having if you care about how the engine bay looks as much as whether it leaks.

What Size AN Wrench Do I Need for Fuel Line Fittings?

Instead of buying a fixed-size spanner for every AN size on the car, each wrench in this collection adjusts across a range — 3AN–12AN, 3AN–16AN, or 3AN–20AN — so a single tool can handle your fuel line, oil cooler, and return-line fittings. The compact, pocket-sized option is built to reach fittings behind manifolds or inside trunk-mounted fuel cell setups where a full-size wrench won't get a clean angle.

Built for DIY Fuel System and Line Installs

These are the same installation tools EVIL ENERGY customers reach for when they're running PTFE fuel line kits, AN fittings, and fuel filter brackets on LS swaps, EFI conversions, and daily-driven trucks and Jeeps. Add a wrench from this collection to your fitting-and-hose order so you're not waiting on a second shipment — or a second trip to the toolbox — mid-install.

FAQs about Tool

What tool do I need to install AN fittings?

A standard wrench doesn't match AN flare-fitting geometry, so the safer option is a dedicated adjustable AN wrench sized for 37° flare hardware. Our AN fitting tools adjust across a size range — for example 3AN–16AN — so one wrench handles most fittings on a typical fuel or oil line.

Yes. Open-end or crescent wrenches are sized for hex bolts, not the thinner aluminum flats on AN hardware, so they tend to round the corners or scratch anodized finishes. A wrench built specifically as an AN fitting wrench, especially one with non-marring nylon jackets, grips the flats correctly and protects the finish.

Match the range to your build: 3AN–12AN covers most small fuel and vacuum lines, 3AN–16AN adds larger fuel and oil cooler lines, and 3AN–20AN covers the widest spread, including bigger return and cooler lines. If you're not sure, a wider-range installation tool is the safer buy since it covers more of your fuel system in one piece.

Yes. Several AN fitting tools in this collection are built as compact or pocket-sized wrenches specifically so they can reach fittings behind manifolds, near firewalls, or inside trunk-mounted fuel cell setups where a full-size wrench can't get a clean angle.

Hand-thread the fitting first to confirm it seats without cross-threading, then use the AN wrench only for the final snug-down — AN flare fittings seal metal-to-metal on the 37° flare, so they need firm, even torque rather than maximum force. Overtightening can distort the flare and cause the same leak it's meant to prevent, so stop once the connection feels solid rather than cranking further.
