I never thought of a spring inside but come to think of it that's how really heavy hose is reinforced.

You can also cut the hose in two pieces and use a barbed 5/8" elbow.

Try the spring. That is two less places for it to leak fuel wink  JMHO

If you use straight hose, buy a spring to put in the inside so it will bend and not kink making a corner wink
  The large filler hose you can get at flaps and regular hose clamps work OK.    JMHO

This place has all the proper hose clamps. Way better than worm gear. $10 end cutting pliers work almost as good on the ear type as the expensive special tool. They also have original style brass spade connectors.

The one I am still needing to get is number 6, and possible number 3 (I suspect a crack in the plastic of the T-Piece).

Has anyone else been able to find the short piece of hose that goes on the other side of the tank return?  I found the tee-to-tank elbow, but I can't find the other half of that hose or fuel hose of a similar size.  Here is what I have now:

I found a website a long time ago that was out of stock, but nothing since.

Thanks,
