How many????
two for the selector valve.....
two for the frame mounted fuel filter and one just before the pump????? Am I correct?? I used fuel lines for Jeeps some from de Bella some from Brian A. On New Years day roll out, I discovered that one of my fuel tank cap was off and dangling from the chain.......how much evaporated is a mystery but will need to suck out the remaining gas for parts washing and refill in the Spring. Cheers

Three for the fuel tank selector valve and one at the fuel pump.
I’ll be remaking my hard lines tomorrow. Somehow I made them from 5/16” tube when the manual clearly calls for 1/4” tube. Not sure how I mixed that up but oh well.

Well I never did get to making up the hard lines. Other events called me away for a few hours. But I did get three of the flex lines installed on the change over switch. When I was removing the elbow from one of the fuel tanks it cracked the pickup tube off the tank. Thankfully it was an easy fix. Everything was re-soldered into place. It was interesting to see just how this piece was made and functioned.

They aren’t the best pictures. However I did finally get the hard lines made up and installed this afternoon. Now I just to sort out the route for the hard line from the fuel filter to the fuel pump. Does the line come down into the chassis or stay up with the cab frame?

It maybe a later production improvement
Hi Harry
My 1942 Pat 13 C60S has the fuel filter inboard of the frame rail, pain to remove and clean. My 1945 Pat 13 HUP has it mounted outboard of the frame with a hole through floor which makes it real easy to drop the filter out or to pull drain plug. I think there are some service bulletins on the location. Cheers Phil
