Brief Description:  Received Oil Separator-Adel clamp fuel line.

Learned a couple things today. Adel clamps easily suck. I thought I was smart. Tried hemostats and almost broke them. Tried 025 safety wire to pull clamps closer. Snapped it twice. Tried 032 wire. Snapped it once. Tried 041 wire. Oh yeah!! It held nicely while my fat fingers managed to start a nut. Done, snipped safety wire and realized I used a nyloc nut instead of metal locknut. More safety wire (041), changed nuts and back together. Used clamps called out in plans but not happy with fuel line clamp. Will remove the blessed nut, more safety wire, and install a better size clamp to hold that fuel line snug. It gets close to the mixture hardware further forward and I don't want it moving forward on its own. 1 clamp - 30 minutes. It HAS to get faster than that.

No lie.  This double clamp took me 30 minutes to put on. Jees.
