Re: 1959-64 3 hp fuel line

If you have the old fuel line that is broken, I’ve actually saved the two ends that go from the tank and the carb to be reused, snipped the middle section, and used rubber hose with fuel clamps on the two ‘nubs’. Sure makes lining everything up go WAY faster on those motors…since you have about a 1 millimeter amount of play between getting the tank and carb perfectly lined up.

You would think the copper line would break more readily given that the vibrations of the running motor have nowhere to be dissipated with that setup. But there certainly is something to be said for the durability of all metal motors.
