House main or washer main? Copper or PVC?
I've had excellent luck with the SharkBite connectors. All you need is clean cuts, and they will connect copper to copper, (C)PVC to (C)PVC, copper to CPVC, they even have PEX versions with the proper insert. MUCH easier than soldering with a torch ...
Somewhere, I have pics (actual, developed photos) of the prototype that was displayed at the Detroit auto show in IIRC 1991.

And by loose, you mean for example, if attached say at only one end, you could simply spin/rotate the sleeve with your bare hand?
If that is the case, the main issue seems to me...
I'm guessing this should be identical to all B-Bodies of this era? Is this dependant on engine size or is this standard along all V8's. I'm just about ready to start putting my fuel tank back in the car and figuring this out myself. If anyone has a picture of an original canister with its...
