Hello, what is the line connecting to that he is having a problem with? To the ac condenser, to the compressor? ANother line? Is the connection stripped where it wont get tight it keeps spinning? A phone call is an additional charge if you want me to call you.

Hellothe bottom bolt doesn't want to go back in. Bolt is not stripped
Automotive Expert
Then it is either the wrong bolt he is using or the line is not aligned properly. It has to have a straight shot to bolt it up. Make sure the line is not bent and sitting flush with its mating surface part.

Ok he is trying to line it up directly. Any pointers?
Automotive Expert
I really dont know what he is trying to hook it up to. If he bent the line in the routing portion, he may need to bend it back. Saying it is the bot\*\*\*\*\* \*\*\*\*\*ne, does not tell me what he is connecting to.
