Even without the cone it doesnt quite make it. I already contacted the seller.

The cone comes off I was trying to figure if you made the first press without the cone then the cone for the double?

I won an old snap on flare tool which was made by imperial on ebay. It arrived today and I ran in the shop to try it. what a nice old American made tool it even feels right when you hold it. So I cut off a piece of tube and gave it a try. when I went to place the clamp over the 5/16 adapter it...

Advance Auto Parts - Down for Maintenance Only $4.49!!!

The seller on eBay is taking it back I'm mailing it out today. Started looking again. Thanks for the suggestions on what brands.

Finally getting back to the car after break in remodeling. Bought a Bluepoint used on eBay and tried it on a scrap piece of line. As soon as I started tightening the wing nuts disenegrated! Never saw anything break that easy! Not just the ears broke off the threaded area broke to!

Tried another borrowed tool on a scrap piece of niccop, a little better hard to shell out $200 for Eastwood for the amount of flaring I do.

My flair does not = decoration , just garbish! ....I mean flare

I'm getting ready to flare my niccop fuel lines, it's been awhile but I have done a fair amount of steel lines. I borrowed an OEM brand flair tool and practice on some old steel line. On my old flair tool I could tighten it all the way then flair and it always worked well. But this one really...

Looks like they use an fittings.

I looked at the Napa 23319 and me and the parts guy tried a fitting and looked it up in his book it takes a 14mm fitting. Is the 5/16 for the carb end and fuel pump?

The guy said he could get me the fittings. I think Im just gonna cut the flair off one end and use the new fitting and flair the end again.

I went to Napa today and they show me the 23319 , it has metric threads did you get an adapter or make a custom line with different fittings? Thanks

Thanks alot! I'll go down to NAPA tomorrow. Looks pretty big description says 4 1/2 x 2 3/4" .

The number would be great! I've been looking everywhere .

Mine is a slant six does anyone know of a metal canister type that would thread on to brake line / fuel line fitting s? This car will see the track only a couple of times a year, but the local track is tough on 12 inches of rubber line front to back.

Anyone ever use the screw on type of metal canister fuel filter?

I used petroleum jelly also it went in good and fairly easily.

I think the one that came with the car is the correct one it fits good. I moved the tank around tonight (as suggested by a member here) and got it to move closer. It only needs to go in about 5\8 more! But it's only half way thru the inner seal part of the grommet.

Tried to install longer tube to check and it's way off. Tried to bring it to custom exhaust shops and they don't think they can bend it without kinking. Maybe try heat and bend? Or cut shorter tube and extend with flexible gas tube and clamps? Any ideas?

It will go all the way through the grommet and stick out into the tank a little. The only thing is the angle it will go through the grommet is a little off. I'm wondering if this will keep it from sealing correctly? The second pic with hand shows the difference in angle.

Tested tank , no leaks. Finally tank is on car. Next is the filler neck. The one that came with the car was to short , bought one that's longer but bent little different.

I'll use the vacuum cap for now so I can keep the project moving then I'll probably plug a piece of fuel injection line.

I have these at home just wasn't sure if they held up to gas

Who makes a fuelproof cap for my 1/4 inch return nipple on my sending unit. Don't want to do bolt plug in line.

Hope to get the tank in this weekend. Hate to have to fix in car.

It did lock in to the notches. It's in there tight, just didn't think the tabs would bend up like that. Wanted to see if anyone else had the same thing happen. It's a spectra tank.
