Knowing that the left side fuel line would need the same joggle between the
two brackets, I updated the drawing and fabricated a new line.
|
|
|
I'm not going to get my hopes up, but this line might work on the first try. (well, okay
it's not really the first try, but rather the first try with the updated design). I needed
to tighten the first bend out of the valve...
|
|
|
...and sure enough, it lines up with the outboard bracket quite well.
|
|
|
Afterward, I decided to trim both left and right lines shorter so the union and tee,
respectively, would be better centered between the two brackets. No pics, sorry. Next
was to find the new location of the purge line through the inboard bracket on the right
side. You may recall this template from before? A few new layout lines and another pilot
hole show the proposed location.

Transferred onto the bracket, this is where the hole will be. That looks much better.
I'll do some more checking before actually drilling anything, but I think this'll be fine.

Last item for the evening was to create the initial design and make the first attempt
at the outboard fuel line for the right hand side. I hope it doesn't take too many
tries to get this right. The fuel valve lines were cheap...I could mess up and only
waste a foot or so of tubing. These take about four feet of tubing for each attempt.
