Glad to hear this.

I got worried when I saw this filter, as this style is common for the early model carbureted motors in the engine bay just before the carbs.

Looks like the original cloth braided Hose from the late 60's/early 70's. You might want to replace this with the latest E85 Rated Hose like this.....



.....just for safety sake. The clamps are "Constant Tension" and perfectly adequate for low pressure (suction) on the supply side.

These early models are becoming so valuable. I lost my beautiful Yellow 72 911 while in storage at Dawe's getting work a couple years ago. Burned to the ground along with a couple other Porsches & a motorhome.

I am a little "gun-shy" when it comes to fuel leaks & fires.
