Re: fuel line?????????????????????

my buddy uses auto fuel lines on his when he replaced and they have been doing great for a year now. i dont think it matters as long as there alcohol(?sp) resistant. marine clamps are a good thing to use though i have ruined a few lines by using the regular hose clamps. but then i might have tightened to tight.

Dan, <br />Couldn't help but notice your from Beuamont. My family resides all around Beaumont (Lumberton, Sour lake, and Bevil oaks). Capt. I used regular automotive fuel line on my rig. Make sure it is chemical resistant, but I think most decent fuel lines are. I haven't had any problems. I had a hard time finding marine grade fule line, and what I did find was ridiculously priced. I used stainless hose clamps. I've had a slew of other problems since then, but not with the fuel system.
