Re: [T3] Fuel Line Routing?

[knowonelse <knowonelse@sbcglobal.net>]

<x-flowed>I ended up finding a rubber electrical bushing with
a 1/4" ID and running a piece of tubing through it.
With a short piece (just the width of the hose clamp)
of tubing on either side clamped in place, I have
a fitting that is flexible, yet won't rub against
any metal. I put another in-line shut-off valve
on the body side as well.

I can shut off the fuel line, disconnect the tube
from the engine side, and remove the engine with
ease.

I'll post a pic of the assembly.
