Brief Description:  Install Vent Line

Put the end rib on the tank with a few cleco's and used a wire to mock up the bend in the vent line. Once I had wire mock up correct, I used the spring tubing bender to put the bends in the vent line. Mounted the Rolo-Flare tool in the vice as seen on EAA hints for homebuilders and made another practice flare on scrap tubing. This one came out very well so I moved on the the real thing. Installed the B-nut and sleeve on the vent line and made a good flare in the end of the vent line. Installed the line through the snap in grommets, re-attached the end rib and connected the vent, then made the final bend in the end of the line to get the opening as high in the tank as possible. (Note the tank is upside down in picture #3.)
