How does the brake hose interface correctly with this connector? The silver sleeve thing came with it, and for comparison is a normal olive, but the olive is too big to fit inside.
So do I assume the silver sleeve thing is the equivalent of an olive, and begin by pushing the hose into the barb? The barb fitting is not removable. All this is alien to me, normally brake lines have been long enough to merely shorten what the manufacturer provides.
