Brief Description: Engine vent tube and fuel line install
|
|
Today, I finally installed the engine vent tube from the material I ordered a few weeks ago. While bending the vent tube, I ended up with a little kink in the tube, so I might end up replacing it. Unfortunately, I don’t have a bender for tube that big, so I tried to heat it up and bend it slowly, but still ended up with a small kink.
After the vent tube, I made up and installed all the fuel lines from the tank to the firewall, the firewall to the Gascolator, and the Gascolator to the AeroInjector. The fuel line from the tank to the firewall is out of rigid tube, while the other lines are made up of the same stuff I used for the oil cooler. It was a pain to find the right fittings at a local store (I didn’t order enough fittings when I ordered the fuel hose) because the flare fittings on the fuel line are (I believe) Metric and all but one local store only had regular. Napa had the right size fittings.
