Brief Description:  redo of the fuel lines system...drive for parts an

Partially removed the newly installed second fuel lines sytem - left and right to straighten, fix the kinks and buff out the scuffs. inserted grpommets where I could to protect against chaffing and used some flexible siliconmhosing to cover exposed areas. Confirmed the fuel tank type and attachment and straightened and prepared the external part of the lines. Made up the center line from tap to firewall gascolator from thwe original left hand fuel line tubing and came up with the perfect template for the future tubing to be made up from new stock since this tubing was too badly damaged and weakened by the previous fitting and subsequent removal. The center line is most critical so there is no question that this must be replaced. Spent some time in research and discivered a perfect solution to replace the entire system with flexi braided teflon-core hose as per email to Willem. Strongly suggested this as the only option safety and practicality. Drove to Aero supplies at Grand central to source some screws for the canopy frame and some more tubing stock but they had none in stock.
