Re: Primer Lines
The ears of those clips are broken off. They are supposed to be bolted to the intake flange casting.

Re: Primer Lines
It is suppose to be under the intake bolt not the rocker cover.

Re: Primer Lines
I've never had problems with cracking copper primer lines. Mine all use the compression (olive) type fittings, I anneal the lines before installation, use the coil method to jump from mount to engine, and clamp them to the air intake tubes just short of the cylinder fitting.

Re: Primer Lines
Luckily I don’t have a crack, just a leak at the fitting on the tee. I will replace the tee and the bracket and hope that fixes the leak.

Steve,
I need a replacement line for cylinder 2. Are the current SS ones in the Lycoming parts book drop in compatible individually or would I need to change the entire primer line system? My IA is more of a Continental guy, has a Champ and a C-170.
Specifically part LW-12098-0-170 TUBE ASSEMBLY, Primer, cyls. no. 1 & 2
Thanks!

Re: Primer Lines
No, get some 1/8" copper and some new ferrules from the hardware store or a good auto parts store. Different ends.
