Translucent tubing vs rubber hose?

Man, if Tygon is ethanol resistant, I would hate to see something that is NOT. That stuff gets as brittle as uncooked spaghetti.

Long live American manufacturing!

The Tygon LP-1100, 1200 and 1500 series fuel lines are described as ethanol compatible. See the original Saint Gobain Tygon info at:

There is a flavor of Tygon tube specifically recommended for outboard fuel lines: http://www.directindustry.com/prod/sain … 06561.html . This is apparently intended for tank/motor lines. See pic. I’d think clear stuff is probably OK for under hood use?
