This is something I'd like to know about then, becuase I would like to try WVO next summer (just don't have time this year, and the vehicle doesn't have many places to go). I have mostly metal lines still, but some lengths between components I have replaced with rubber because the metal lines could not stand the vibrations. It was recommended by the local store to use transmission line, so that is what they sold me, and so far, for normal diesel, it has worked just fine. Will WVO degrade this stuff? I'm sorry if you've already given your answer...I'm just not familiar with what "Buna-n" is.

Nitrile is a rubber too, read this. Nitrile is degraded by Esters also.

bterry,
Just got threw reading Planet Drives recomendations for WVO fuel lines, they recomend Gates XL fuel lines for there conversions, I am running Gates at this time.
FYI, I am up in the Cooperstown area, I plan on comming down to the Giant scale Model Airplane event next weekend at the Chenango Bridge Airfield. I plan on camping there Fri. and Sat. evening.
I have 2500+ miles on WVO at this time.
