Fuel Line?

About 6 mo. ago I sprung a leak in my fuel supply line (rust). At that time I put the Vulcan relocation kit in and a new stock L.P. I replaced the steel line with S.A.E. rated neoprene fuel line. Neoprene all the way from the L.P. to the filter. Is anyone getting any negative feedback from using this line? I have developed a problem with my lines drainig back to the tank. Its either a compromised fuel line or a bad check valve. I changed the fuel cap 2 mos. ago,but now my starting problems back. Any ideas? Thanks Frank

neoprene will harden and can crack , 30r9 is minimum rating for diesel lines or u can go to any marine supply and buy their fuel line which is even better. ist about $3-4$ per foot depending on thickness....vulcan performance has one of the best prices on fuel line.being that i live on a large island, marine supply's are a dime a dozen and bought mine at west marine.
