    Fuel system ferrules

    I have replaced alot of the fuel lines on my Deuce and I use the compression fitting type. I always make sure to install the brass stints in the line so the fitting does not cut in to the hose.

    Ever see a starter break like this.

    I have seen starters brake in just about every place. Remember its just cast cheap junk. one good drop can start a crack and time takes care of the rest.
