I conflated tank venting with fuel line replacement in my previous post, my fuel lines certainly had clamps!  Do both replacements if you haven't yet.

Hi,

The big difference is the type of clamps.

Go-Westy uses:
Twenty-six (26) special crimp-style ear clamps (two large and 24 small)

Other's use screw type, which is my preference, but it is quite a controversial topic!

Additionally, I bought..
http://www.van-cafe.com/page_494_293/fuel-tank-reseal-kit-b

What I liked about it was the metal inserts of the cross over pipe rather than plastic of other kits.

Cheers,
Steve
