5 hours today and all that I accomplished was installing 2 fuel hoses !!!!! Actually connecting the hoss wa a snap, figuring out |
|
how to secure them, which Adel clamps to use and fabricating some mounting/standoff plates took the bulk of the time. Both of |
|
th elines have the Integral firesleeve from Performance hose, and they are beauties. The 1st hose was the supply from the |
|
mechanical fuel pump to the fuel controller. I ran it inside of the intake tubes, and used 2 bolts from the oil sump to attach a |
|
.090" mounting plate that I made. I put 2 White Adel clamps #10 (Thanks John Cox!) on the plate and attached them and the |
|
hose to the plate and then attached the plate to the sump using 1/4" longer bolts I picked up locally + (new star washers). The |
|
2nd hose is the metered fuel from the fuel controller to the fuel spider, the fuel line gets run up between the #3 & #5 Cyls. I |
|
though tI could just use and Adel clamp on one of the sump bolts, but the hose rubbed on the engine case, ..... So I made |
|
another bracket similar to the fuel supply hose and attached an #8 Adel clamp to the bracket and reattached the bracket to the |
|
case/sump. I have two more hoses 1 Oil, and 1 the fuel return from the purge valve. |
