It's been recommended to me that I replace the ferrule you see below. I need to cut a half inch of this line and stick it on. I'm going to buy the ferrule in the morning, so I have two questions to make sure I understand this concept:
1) Why is the tapered end of the oil line a bad thing?
2) Once the ferrule is on, and the line is cut, won't the ferrul just slip off anyway? So what is the point of the ferrule?
Sorry for the dumb questions, but something in my brain just isn't clicking with this whole ferrule concept, as far as why it's all needed, and how it prevents the line from leaking. Thanks for any lament explaination that will help me understand.
