Discard one of the two longer aluminum tubes. It will not be used for our style of fuel tank setup.
❑
Using 220 grit sandpaper, carefully smooth and deburr each end of the two aluminum tubes. This will prevent the fuel tubing
from being accidentally cut when it is installed later.
❑
Push the two aluminum tubes through the rubber stopper. Slide the large diameter metal plate over the tubes at the front of the
rubber stopper and slide the small diameter metal plate over the tubes at the rear of the rubber stopper.
❑
Using a ruler, measure the distance that the two aluminum tubes
protrude from the front of the stopper assembly. This distance should
be 3/8". If it is not, adjust the tubes by pushing them forward or
backward until you are satisfied with the alignment.
❑
Carefully bend the longer of the two aluminum tubes up at a 45º angle, being careful not to kink the tubing as you bend it.

When the stopper assembly is installed in the fuel tank, the top of the vent tube (the tube you just bent) should
rest inside the bubble in the top of the fuel tank.
❑
Secure one end of the silicone fuel tubing onto the end of the fuel pick-up "clunk."
❑
Slide the silicone fuel tubing, with the fuel pick-up attached, onto the
end of the aluminum fuel pick-up tube (straight tube). While holding the
aluminum tube in place, adjust the length of the silicone tubing until the
end of the fuel pick-up is 4-1/2" back from the rear of the stopper
assembly.
❑
Push the M3 x 20mm machine screw through the front of the stopper assembly and partially thread it into the small diameter
metal backplate. Don't tighten the machine screw yet or you won't be able to install the stopper assembly into the fuel tank.
