I know it clicked when I installed it, but lesson learned: ALWAYS give those quick connect hoses a tug to ensure they're clicked in properly. I lost 1/4 tank of fuel alllll in my engine bay. I did my best to clean it up and removed the hood insulation to clean that separately, but my garage will smell like fuel for weeks

Holy smokes man... sounds like you are lucky to have a car still --or maybe even still be alive.
