Does this fit on my 2.5 T-maxx?
My Sportmaxx/Tmaxx has a really short fuel line to the carb. I cannot even think off reaching it to pinch and shut it off. I was wondering if this line/clamp will fit.

I planned on extending the fuel line a little bit. Is there any negative/positive effects to this? Thanks.

Yes it will fit. Having the fuel line longer will alow the motor to stay running upsidedown. The longer the fuel line, the longer the truck will have before it stalls.

If you whant the line longer just put a longer fuel line on it, you don't need a line clamp. But if you feel the need for one that would work, traxxas make them too. They are standard issue on the t-maxx 2.5 and 3.3 at least, I'm guessing they are standard on all traxxas nitro models. In order for you to reach the clamp you would need a longer hose anyway. I would just buy a foot of fuel line which I thought was in stock at all hobbyshops in a variety of colors and just cut it the perfect length, so it's reachable for pinching.
