''AHHHHHH the conspiracy theorasts are at work again... i see''
Well living in sunny calif and knowing just how much I trust my gov't I firmly believe that the new formulated gas we have had for almost a couple decades or so is mixed with an additive that destorys the intregirty of some compounds found in hoses. I own a 356 sports car and have (now HAD) original german rubber fuel lines for years. very good quality stuff. well one day i rode 60 mi w/o any issues, stopped the car for 10min, then drove some more. That is when the split occured (just like that) engine FIRE. I dalways carry a halon, but it was a $4000.00 claim. to fix and the fire was maybe 30seconds.
GO BUY AND ONLY USE FUEL INJECTED HOSE. $6-8.00/foot it's pretty thick stuff.
for you guys who have modern vehicles don't have to worry any (much) because this doesn't affect you .... the theory is 'they (?????)' wish to eliminate older autos from the roads to eliminate smog, gas guzzlers, wrecks etc. off our highways. most newer autos use fuel injection systems, so we need to use their high pressure hoses. 'they' don't say they have done any of this, complete deniability.
but folks have stories just like this and i heard about 6 so far. all true. me toooooo.
put your gas in a bowl and let it sit out for a week. a lot of whit powder flake
ethonal is A BIG JOKE
MORE WASTED TAX $$$$$$$$$
