Mike, the parts are on their way. I also sent along a length of gasoline tubing I discovered a few years ago. This stuff is so good I actually sell it. I sent you enough to outfit one set-up. If you use a Dubro tank, you should solder rings of wire to form barbs on the brass tubes. The tube ID is 1/8" and it won't hold on the 3/32" ID brass tubes. The gas line will be as trouble free as the OS will be.

If you have a problem with the couplers let me know. Two things to help them stay put...The button heads installed on the ends of the aluminum tubes really help. The pipe should be soft mounted at its approximate balance point. This isn't elaborate. I use a Dave Brown type which I modify to my liking as follows: I epoxy the bracket onto the pipe with a nut inside to hold the Lord mount. The mount is then secured to the fuse externally. Extremely neat, simple and functional
