* Each hose has a tag crimped on with VERY sharp edges where they cut the tab off. Consider using a glue gun and adding hot glue to the tabs so you don't cut yourself handling the hoses during install. Make sure the tags are not near anything they can touch later during flight and cut into. | * Each hose has a tag crimped on with VERY sharp edges where they cut the tab off.

The kit contains a small paper sheet that lists the function of each fuel hose number. | * The tags have a hose number stamped onto it, e.g. "H9" (Hose 9).

* The | * If you have the setup for SDS fuel pumps, consider not running the hose from the fuel valve to the pumps in a straight line. The hose is very short and stiff and has no way to shrink / stretch if there is no bend in it. It also gives you a bit more freedom concerning how far to screw the fitting into the pump assembly. The milled distribution manifold may not allow you to add another full turn.<br>[[File:2023-09-04 14-32-38.jpg|467x467px]] | ||
* The fuel lines under the seats are held by F-1084A/F-1084B. Normally the metal lines are protected by plastic bushings with 0.375 ID / 0.5 OD. For the premade lines, one can use rubber grommets forced over the fitting, e.g. ID 0.5 (1/2), OD .594 (19/32). This requires enlarging the F-1084 holes to 19/32. | |||

* The brake lines under the seats are held by F-1084A/F-1084B. Normally the metal lines are protected by plastic bushings with .25 ID / .375 OD. For the premade lines, one can use rubber grommets forced over the fitting, e.g. ID 0.375 (3/8), OD .469 (15/32). This requires enlarging the F-1084 holes to 15/32. | * The brake lines under the seats are held by F-1084A/F-1084B. Normally the metal lines are protected by plastic bushings with .25 ID / .375 OD.
