BioDiesel Suitable Fuel Line

Hey guys!

I have been running bio for about two years now and love it. I have replaced my supply and return fuel lines a couple of time with some cheap rubber and need to do it again in the next week or so. Before I spend $6 a foot on some high quality viton line from eBay, does anyone know and have experience with a bio compatible 3/8 line?

Thanks,
lv2bunderwater

Gates hoses don't hold up. They were supposed to make bio compatible, but I don't know if they ever did. Goodyear "fuel and emissions" hose seems to hold up indefinitely. Nylon survives bio, but hardens and cracks sometimes.

Go with viton or synthetic bio rated fuel hose.
