Continued work on the fuel line today. The FT-60 and the gascolator were installed. The gascolator I had installed the aft fitting prematurely as it needed to go through the firewall. I had to adjust the hole through the firewall slightly to allow it to go through properly. The main fuel lines were fabricated, installed and hand tightened. I am waiting on crowfoot wrenches to I can torque the flare fittings. Overall tube fabrication is going fairly smoothly.
Time: 2 hrs
