I am sealing up my 1972 TR6 from timing cover to diff seal. So with everything pulled out of the car I've been checking things over. One of the problem areas I found was a routing problem with the nylon piping from the carbon canister to the tank pipe. It has been melted because it was not snapped to the clips with the fuel pipe. You can see how it should be run by looking on page 19 in the Blue Book (https://trf.zeni.net/TR6bluebook/index.php?zoom=1&page=25). Here are my questions:
1) How does it exit the tank and route to the clips on the frame? The parts manual and my car show the edge finisher in place. I'd assume it should run behind the cross member and then to the chassis rail due to the manual picture and the rail finisher being attached here.
2) In the attached picture, what is the mounting bracket used for where the pipes are currently zip tied? Is it left over from another application? I can't seem to find anything in the parts book that mentions it.
On another note, the nylon piping is no longer from TRF/Moss/etc. I found some 1/4 inch diameter nylon piping for air brakes at O'Reilly's Auto Parts. They can sell it in 1' increments.
Thanks in advance,
