I just noticed that the feul hose i used to install my faceut E-pump is cracking and soon will be leaking. This stuff was just put on 3 months ago, and i's got no miles on it yet. I got it from advance auto, feul injection hose. Anyway i've been checking around on Jegs.com for something good but cant find a good quality lined hose:dunno What do you guy's use and where can i get it, i want something good that will last without going to steel braided.. Thanks

I like to use rubber hose that's for transmission fluid it seems to hold up to whatever I throw at it

the thermoid brand hose Advance carries does not hold up well to diesel. Ask me how i know.

I replaced everything with good year fuel injection hose. Problem free for 2 years now.

I feel your pain, but I haven't come up with anything to completely get rid of the drips, downleaks etc. This issue is much worse with fuel cocktails or with B100, or at least that's what I always blamed, maybe most fuel hose is crap.

I have used goodyear with good results, on diesel. Now that im running a low % bio blend, I might have issues in the future but not yet.

Dayco makes great fuel hose, Buy whatever your local big truck dealer uses strait from them, because imo they dont have time to mess around with junk.

Not sure if the NAPA guy was blowin smoke of me ass or not (have a good relationship with the guy, so i dont think so) but he is the local big truck parts place and said the regular fuel injector hose is what all the truckers use. He said only if i was runnin blended fuel was i to have a rpbolem with it breaking down, cracking, gettin gummy, etc. I think it was Gates fuel injection hose i used.
