Oil pressure line and fuel line big 411

Heading out to the farm this weekend to pipe up the o-pressure line and repipe the fuel line. 1/4 copper tubing and swadgelock fittings. I will use the spring tool to bend my tubing 90*s or a piece of 6" pipe .Any other sugestions,as how to form ,shape and run copper tubing. The archives were just a little vague. Thanks in advance !

Chuck, the gas line needs to be graded so it runs down hill from the gas tank. You can use my tubing bender but you'll have to come get it. Am sending pictures from my phone. Plan on a connector in the oil pressure line for ease of splitting at a later date. Hope you have a good weekend. tom aka gobble

I have taken a V pulley with the approximate radius you need to bend. The V-pulley prevents the sides of the tube from going out and "kinking" the tubing material. Just about like a tubing bender but more redneck.
