    Trick fuel hose

    Anybody out there have a good source for that trick transparent fuel hose? I've looked around the net a bit and mostly found big online part dealers with high shipping costs.

      I just bought a trick new fuel coupler... and need a new hose because mine looks old and nasty. I'd like to know, too.

                from the MABE (http://www.maberacing.com/forum) site:

                For fuel line tubing, I like the yellow tygon stuff...it's a little pricey, but it's more flexible and doesn't harden up as bad as the black rubber stuff. You can actually remove it without skinning your knuckles repeatedly. And it's see through... Smile



                The 1/4" ID stuff works well feeding to the carbs. Depending on the size of your fuel pump ports you might need something bigger upstream.

                    If you want good fuel line like the yellowish tygone (never gets hard like uncooked maccaroni like that shitty PVC hose) just go to your local auto parts store (like NAPA or Autozone) they have it in any diameter you wish. Cheap and sold by the foot. Problem solved. -Crash

                      So if I want to replace the line from the petcock, what diameter do I need?

                        I found fuel line at Tractor and Supply when I have mine crack on the way to work on day. It's yellow and flexable. With a leatherman and 10 minutes I was going and it woked great... and was cheap.
