Here is a little installation tip to help with the bend. Twist the line
slightly while making the bend - the line will not kink and collapse when
you do that. The twist will not affect the structural integrity of the
line, but it will keep it open. Another neat thing is that the lines (being
translucent) will let you see if crap is in the carbs.
