Can anyone tell me if those O_f__a fuel triggers/holders work with the XT8/XB8 fuel tanks? Is it long enough for the truggy? |

They should fit. But why spend $5 on something you can make from a few zip ties and fuel tubing? I use two narrow zip ties back to back (so the heads are facing opposite directions, and force them through so fuel tubing. It takes a while, but with a little wd-40, and some pliers, it can be done. Others use one, and make a loop before forcing the fuel tubing over. Personal choice, I guess. Easy to make custom lengths, too. |

Skip that idea Rich, I put one on my buggy tank and it was a pain in the buttocks. The loop on the tank end is not big enough. you can make it work, it just takes awhile. I had to heat it up and wrench it around and snake it thru there and dremel a bit here,,,Blahhhh!! ![]() Zipties and fuel tubing = waay less hassle and cheaper. ![]() |
