And I’m not talking about females. Well maybe, females too. What do you guys do to find quality made fuel hose today ? I put a 3/8 inch fuel hose on my low pressure / power steering gear box about 6 or 7 months ago. The heat, which couldn’t have ever been very high. Because my car never over heated and it never reached much over 90 degrees here over the summer. Just light heat transfer from the manifold to the gear box. The last inch of the hose was melting slightly from heat transfer from the gear box to the attachment nipple. Total junk. No wonder it was leaking. Im replacing the valve body seals right now. I was going to buy 3/8 hydraulic hose. But, I can’t find it locally that doesn’t have attached hydraulic fittings. I’m not sure if you can even make a clean cut with that type of hose because it’s encased in what looks like a heavy vinyl material ? What do you guys think ?
