Lousy way to find things when you finally get home. Fix em up and get those funky trucks Rollin.

Tires, AC Delco parts, even the boy's apple juice(Kroger brand frozen concentrate) was made in China!!!

This hose is standard low presure gasoline and lube.If you're hose doesn't say this(not the hose between your legs)get some that does. If it does say 30R7,let the rot begin  | | | | | Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 662 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jan 2001 Posts: 662 | I just changed out my fuel hoses that had only a year on them because of cracks on the outside. It was the SAE30R7 fuel hose. We have the Chicago flavor lower-emission gas here, but since the cracks were on the outside and the liner was still intact, I wonder if it is ozone/heat related. I put the same stuff back on, but is there a better choice? | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,897 Member | | Member Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,897 | Ya haven`t figured it out yet? - - It is all a plot by the Aliens to make us flame our nice old trucks and switch to spacecraft  :p WHere is my tinfoil beanie :confused: - - WHere is Norselander on this one ???
There is enough good in the worst of us and enough bad in the best of us that it does not behoove any of us to criticize the rest of us.

Why don't you guys use braided stainless steel hose so when we have to go nuclear you are all set up.

Don't think the hose manufactures are keeping up with the changes in fuel
The only stuff that seems to really be good is the 'Push on' stuff on the 39 been there for atleast ten years
Make me worry about the FI hoses for the 12 port | | | | | Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,897 Member | | Member Joined: Feb 2001 Posts: 1,897 | OOOOO 12 port  I am savin
