first, let me say, I`m not a big fan of float a motor mounts. I bought a nice late 31 SW four door a while back. the previous owner had installed float a motor mounts and electric fuel shut off, so you could shut off the gas from the inside of the car, the fuel line from the turn off valve to the carb has broke now for the third time. each time I made a new gas line. I have now put a woven hose on it. in all my years with the Model A`s I have never broke that gas line. and I was lucky all three times the car did not catch on fire. The question is has anyone else had this happen to them.
