I'm waiting on a couple of parts to arrive in the mail, so here are my current questions:

How does one go about replacing the brass fuel line fitting on this carb? The plastic part broke off before I got it and a 1/4" fuel line was shoved on and held with a hose clamp. This *shockingly* leaked, so I order part number 1003-0257 from Drag Specialties. It looks much better, but I wonder how the installation will go once it arrives. I'm pretty sure I can twist the old one out with a bench vice or vice grips. Should I install the new one by rigging up a way to press it in? Or square it up and tap it in with a soft brass hammer?


Question two, anybody have an extra rubber tank grommet to hold the side fairing on with? This bugs me:
