Default RE: Fuel Barb Soldering Help Please!

I have soldered plenty of them on..
Solder on one end then slide all the way into the stopper and solder the other end. You don't have to get it so hot it will damage the stopper. Brian

Hi all,

I'm really kinda new to the gas thing and setting up my first gas airplane. I know that I need to solder barbs on the 1/8'' brass tubing but my question is how do you solder the barbs on both ends of the brass tubes going through the stopper without melting the stopper?

Thanks for any and all tips,
Andy
