Re: Fuel Lines

After reading how this thread took an "offended" turn I don't feel so bad for that speed-related exchange the other day with a member regarding how fast I like to go.

So, did the OP ever get the new fuel line made?

I'm going to have to redo part of my hard line as I put in a fuel shutoff valve but I put it too far down to get my hands on while sitting in the truck! Way to go me.

Why don't ya just make a longer handle for the valve.
Or perhaps a choke/push/pull cable. You could mount that anywhere convenient.
That valve you installed was a good idea for theft prevention.

Re: Fuel Lines

A longer handle would not work.

I have no idea how to incorporate a push/pull cable.

I'll just redo that part of the fuel line next summer. It's not a huge deal, it can wait until I have the garage renovated.
