Brief Description:  Fuel Line Session #4

Well there isn't a whole lot to say for working this long session. Making fuel lines involves taking a piece of Aluminum 3003 tubing and begining to bend it into the shape needed to route the line to where you need it. Once again it is more "art" than science. A long piece like the one here for the right tank supply has additional challenges.

My routing and setting up the line had the one requirement of keeping as much clearance to allow for the storage bins....so I set up the fittings on the valve to maximize the routing. Andair valves are wonderful for being able to rotate the fittings or even buy other types of fittings if needed for your application.

Anyway....after several hours I had completed the right fuel line.
