I've got one fuel line to install (carbs) and the engine is out. I had no luck getting the new line in further than 8 -12"
I can't imagine doing this with the engine in without bending the f*ck out of the new line.... |

I'm using a boroscope, I watched the video, tried everything. No luck.
Rubber tip is now gone, at one point, I couldn't get it back out. Really frustrating. I got it quite a ways in, it seemed to go all the way to the original clips, but then wouldn't go any farther no matter what I did. I wish I would have just kept the 10mm soft line in there, it was in perfect condition. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |
