hoses & seals ???
I hear various things about effects of WVO & Biodiesel on fuel lines. How significant are the effects? Is there a place where the varying effects are posted? Viton I hear is the material of choice.. but it is $13+/ft, and I don't think I can get it locally. Tygon (F4040A) is much cheaper $2-4/ft and lots of places carry it. But I have not seen a report about its use with Biofuel.
I have the rear tank out of my truck installed a HotFox, I was thinking of just using standard rubber fuel lines.. but started thinking about the hassel of having to replace the fuel line to the tank again.. I really dont want to be pulling that tank again if I can help it.
How about getting seals for the injection lines for older engines. If I buy a kit will it still be made with OE material?

1984 6.9L F250, no vitron on her. The hard lines are stainless, then the last few feet to the tank are rubber. I just wish I knew a local supplier and didn't have to wait for a UPS shipment again.
The o-rings started leaking also, are all the kits now made with vitron o-rings? or are there some brands I should avoid?
