Default No more spurred fuel line for me

After having my fuel line get tangled up in the spur gear over and over again on my CRT, I have come up with a solution from coat hanger

you sure the exhaust wont cause some of the fuel to evaporate?

It won't evaporate, it's enclosed in the fuel line.
But you have an excelent point. Running that close to the exhaust will preheat the fuel and that's never, ever a good thing.

The wire idea to keep the line where you want it is a good one but I'd reroute it some more to get it off the pipe.

The fuel line is not that close to the pipe, it just looks like it is because of the angle I took the picture...It's actually fartheraway with the bracket than it was without it. A cheap fix or a free fix is always a good fix.
