67 engine comparment brake lines
« on: March 27, 2016, 01:21:32 PM »
I had my accellarator linkage out to P&O and I found a conflict between it and a brake line that runs underneath it, it seems the brake line inter fears with the full travel of the throttle linkage Im guessing from poorly made repro brake lines. Is this how the line should be ?

Looks like the lower hose has been bend up and outward slightly to cause the contact

Thank you Jeff, from your pics I think the bottom line is not the right one.  :(

You're also missing the line hold down at the 4:00 position.

I see that now and the hole is there too, this is much like reading a book the second time around you see things you would swear weren't there.  :o Jeff again your pics save the day !
