 Gas line help
What size/kind of line do y'all use and where do y'all get it from. The line on my GTR is starting to dry rot.

 Re: Gas line help
I use 5/16 blue ethanol resistant hose. I bought it at a marine supply house. It's 2-3 $ a foot depending where u buy it.

 Re: Gas line help
I had trouble with the liner balling up on the grey one. Your fked If gas gets between the hose and liner on the grey one. Its prolly the same with the blue one, but hasn't happened to me yet.

 Re: Gas line help
Buy some quality black automotive line. You dont have to change the fuel line in your vehicle every few years do you? I have a old truck that may sit 6 months before being used, so ethanol gas sits it it for long periods and I have no problems. Used the black line from the front of the boat to the back and then used marine line with the bulb from there to the motor. The marine line gets stiff after about one year.

 Re: Gas line help
Hell, I'm using some kind of poly air line for fuel line and it's been working great and it's clear blue so I can see if there's any funk in my gas.
