Fuel Filter Drain

I instlalled a 5/16" fuel line extension of the fuel filter drain.....took me forever to find the sucker.
My hat is off to all you weekend mechanics. I tried to put a metal strap on it, to insure tightness, but I couldn't get this big ole hands in that small opening to do so. I just shoved the line on far enough that I'm sure it won't come off.

Re: Fuel Filter Drain

You guys have the funniest way of doing things. Imagine, laying under a PSD and turning the fuel spigot on! [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]

It's easy to find if you lay under there when someone opens the fuel drain! [img]images/icons/laugh.gif[/img]

I only do this during ****tail hour or when I have a powerful thirst. I simply add a bit of hopps and barley with a pinch of yeast to a frosty cold mug and fill her up right from the spigot. For a smoother mixture, simply place your hand over the mug and shake it a few times before serving [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]

I call it "Dies-Ale" or "Dies-Brown-Ale" [img]images/icons/tongue.gif[/img]
