Anyone have a kink free solution to the fuel lines out the bottom of the fuel tank? I seem to have a hard time getting everything connected without the fuel lines kinking when I install the gas tank.

Make your lines extra Long and use a long gent curl when dropping in the tank. It's about the only way.

I usually have to pull the lines out the hole in the bottom, then carefully reinsert them to keep them from kinking. After installing the tank.

Try not to have hoses too long. Good luck not much room for your hand in the hole. Germans must have smaller hands!
