ABSTRACT:
A fluid direction tube insertion assembly for simultaneously inserting two or more fluid direction tubes into an automobile engine body or part thereof. The fluid direction tube insertion assembly includes at least two thermoplastic fluid direction tubes which preferably have a coefficient of thermal expansion about the same as the automobile engine body or part thereof into which they are to be inserted and a flexible bracket which is sufficiently flexible that it may be flexed during insertion of the fluid direction tubes into corresponding receiving bores in the engine body to provide proper alignment/orientation of the fluid direction tubes with the corresponding receiving bore. The fluid direction tube insertion assembly may be either a one-piece molded one or may be of separately molded fluid direction tubes and a separately molded flexible bracket which are subsequently joined.
