Hi all,
My fuel injector elbow on #1 is leaking, so I’ve decided to replace all four.

Both PMB and 914Rubber are currently out of stock, so I’m debating between:
waiting ~3 weeks and getting the pre-formed elbow hoses from Pelican,

Or buying straight fuel hose from Sierra Madre (in stock) and cutting/bending them myself

For those who’ve done this before — how difficult is it to form a proper elbow without kinking the hose? Is it worth waiting/paying more for the pre-formed ones, or is DIY perfectly fine and easy to do?

For clamps, I’m planning to use Porsche/Würth Zebra clamps

Unless there’s a better option I should consider.

Appreciate any input — thanks as always.
