It is not easy, and not much room. I prop up tank wit a small 2"x 4". Look in their with a flash light. The shop manual tell to lube the tube with some engine oil for assembly.

It does help to lube. Reverse order at assembly.

Good luck, JB. I watched a video, but didn't find it much help. The guy did it very quickly and there were no close-ups of what he did.

Well I was just trying to wire up a receptacle for my cell phone or gps ... I bought a water proof cigarette plug with a handle bar mount ... I put it all back together as I was afraid I was going to break that fuel line ... I'd really like to see it done first ... I would be upset with myself if I broke that fuel line assembly ... Lol
