Default Fuel line repair

Do you think the way I have this will work? I started it and it doesn't leak. I will of course shorten up the excess line if this will be fine. I will also add a clamp where the rubber line meets the hard line.

As long as it is rated for use with fuel and has the rating to withstand the pressure it should work.

I'd double clamp both sides though, just to be sure.

I used all the clamps I had. It should work. Here's how I tilted the bed.

I like how you tilted your bed Snow, I'll have to keep that in mind for mine. I've got the same hoist, it's served me well, especially for a HF tool.
