Howdy All:
As part of my 77 FJ40 restoration I replaced the fuel tank. I am using the old hard lines but am replacing the rubber lines since the old ones were trashed.
The suction line had a small elbow shaped metal fitting where the rubber line came out of the tank that joined to a rubber line that went to the hard line on the frame rail (see pic).
Was looking at another pic of a 77 and it has the same little elbow piece (see second pic).
Question: is the small metal piece necessary? If so what does it do? I have it and can install it l just wondering what it does.
Thanks!!!!
