Classic IV Fuel Vent Line

[1701S]

Working on my Classic IV. The vent line on the right wing tank has a barbed fitting that comes straight out of the tank near the top. The vent line makes a right angle back to the rear spar so it can go down to the header tank along with the fuel line.

How do you keep the vent line from crimping at the fitting where it makes the right angle bend?

Thanks

I cut two segments off of the barb. The clamp used to hold the hose on only utilizes two segments to clamp on to anyhow.

Remember that you need to keep a loop in the line so it won't kink when the wings are folded.
