Deputydog,
Thanks for the info! I had not heard of the barbs so I checked my LHS and they actually had them in two sizes. I ended up getting the 5/32 barbs and some 5/32 brass to increase the size of the pipes going into the tank. I had already bought the metal spring clamps for the fuel line but the slop from the 5/32 fuel line to the original tank pipe was way more than they would solve. I'll use both just to be safe......(read paranoid)
