Made and installed the tubing from the fuel pump to the gascolator

My first attempt didn't work. It was just a gentle curve from one component to the other. But I couldn't get between the two fittings without messing up the ends. So I took the first attempt piece and made a new one, using the first one as a template. This time I made an "S" turn with it. This allowed some flexibility to put the line between the fittings and stretch it in between the fittings for the final fit. I made a real mess with the thread seal on the gascolator bracket. By this time I really didn't give a crap how messy it was.
