Post fuel line
why use marine grade fuel line vs using a fuel line from the auto parts store. a buddy has been using the auto parts store line (which is much cheaper he said)and he's had no problems. i need about 18ft of line and would like to save a little cash if possible.

Ive been running some 1/4 inch stuff from Oriellys auto parts for over a year and have had no trouble. You can buy a whole roll of it for what it cost for 10 feet of marine stuff.
