A little bit of lubrication always makes it go in easier.

Re: New fuel line
About a month ago the siphon in the gas tank broke off. Son held the fuel line in the filler cap
and we got back to the slip. Had to go to 2 shops to get a new siphon, PIA. Pulled the toon
last Friday, wasn't the best summer we have had, but next summer will get here sooner or later.

lubrication will make it slip off as easy as it made it slip on.
