An interesting - if a bit long-winded - video on problems arising with replacement fuel hoses :

From reading people's comments after watching the video, this was something I hadn't heard before:

Gates barricade fuel hose is one that does seems to get the 'thumbs up' - I remember Angus stating recently that he's been using it for ~ 15 yrs & not seen any problems ...

Interesting.
I change the hoses on the Lola every 3 years or when they feel a bit 'rigid.

Heard yesterday that E15 will be heading to the pumps this year.
I think this will replace E10 but E5 continues.

So is this stuff any better, does not say for fuel but seems to meet all the other requirements?

I use Cohline which has the protective FKM lining.

I've recently replaced the fuel hoses to/from the rear-mounted pump on my car.

I too used Cohline 2240 R9-rated hose with the FKM lining ...
