TR4/4A Routing of TR4A Fuel Line

[KVH]

I found this pic online. Is it safe to say that the fuel line on a 4A runs through the T-Shirt?

I believe that is correct. (My line ran that way; when I replaced it I did the same. Post #109 has a few photos: > TR4/4A - TR4A Assembly by a rookie (me!) <)

Moss has a good picture on their fuel line page.

Yes, I can't imagine any other way it could be routed. Otherwise, at some point, it would have to cross under the frame, I think, and that really wouldn't be a good design.

Yes, thanks, I just saw a drawing that had me concerned. It showed grommets that made me suspect frame pass/thrus, but I suppose the grommets are just buffers ( or who knows). Probably just me looking for something to worry about.

Some of the parts suppliers call out fuel line grommet CD23720 for the TR4A. This is incorrect; however I believe it is needed for the TR4. The 4A lines do not go through the frame; only through the t-shirt.

Perfect. Thanks. A bit close to the exhaust pipe but that’s the way it is.

Just went thru this routing and I was concerned about the exhaust being close but that is the factory routing. There is a one or two clips inside the "tunnel" to hold the line. Bruce
