Brief Description:  Fuel selector - feed lines

Now that wiring harness routing it determined, time to address fuel line routing, as well as brake lines. All in the center floor console. (See revisons of AFP and feed lines Feb 3, 2015)

Got the fuel selector, boost pump and filter out of the closet and started looking at the fuel line routing issues to bend feed lines from the tanks. Recently saw a good option to acquire flexible fuel lines, fabricated with steel bends on each end. This makes a lot of sense but needs some 'pattern' bends to get custom hoses made.

Bent several 10 inch sections of 3/8th inch AL fuel tubing for the selector to side of console housing. Very tight and interference with lines on the filter and pump. After examination it was clear that these items could be shifted forward to eliminate the interference, but this requires a couple of replacement connection lines. String of dominoes ... each has to change.
