I decided it was past time to replace the old (could be original) dried out and cracked fuel line. I ordered the thin wall hose and wire clamps from Mike's. (BTW... they shipped super fast.) I had read good things about those two items. The hose is part 20-4010 and the clamps are 20-4017. I started installing them today, but have a question before I finish the job. I realize the lines aren't under pressure, but I have to get your input. I've never installed fuel line that slips on so easily. It easily rotates on the spigots with the clamps on. Is that OK? I'm used to wrestling with line that is really tight. One more thing. The protective springs will not fit over the hose. That's not a deal breaker for me. Does anyone have experience with these items on a stock 76 with stock carbs? Thanks!
