Needle valve clip attachment

[barber1303]

Anyone got a good trick for getting the needle valve clipped to the float after installation? I've tried installing the needle valve and float together, but the physics don't work out. It's easy to install the needle valve and then the float, but getting the clip on after installation seems to be more than I can handle with a needle nose pliers. I guessing there a trick to it, but I just can't seem to figure it out...

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Chris

i use a small pick, never had a bit of trouble to do it, and I use the "loop-style," not the OEM one-sided clip.

I use the O.E.M. clips with an open side, or clip them to convert them to the same as O.E.M.

Cut the upright piece off so it's open.

Same thing Steve-o said I see!

Yep, Dan-o had me do that a few months ago. He's most excellent at answering the phone to help a brother out!
