fuel line recomendations

I am going through the fuel system on my 96 PSD and have replaced all of the orings with viton and was wondering what would any of you recomend for fuel lines from the pump to the filter housing, regulator, etc.

Ford sell the kit of three (3) hoses, one of which is longer than the other two (2). They are blue in color.

They are a high pressure, high heat line as I understand it. Some of the members have found substitute hose but I don't know what it is or where they get it. And you just hope that it don't fail.

Ford is probably the easiest and quickest, that's where I got mine when I changed my fuel pump.

Good luck

times 2! You can use any 300 psi diesel rated hose but I find it easier to buy the prepackaged Ford hose because its the right length and straight compared to hose of a spool.

I have this in my PC.
FUEL HOSES <?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o>
Fuel Hose, BLUE (Aeroquip FC498-06)
(Ford) F4TZ-9324-CA, 3" Long lift pump to filter inlet
(Ford) F4TZ-9324-DA Shorter than above, Filter outlet to High Pressure (piston) pump inlet<o></o>

<o></o>
Aeroquip FC332-06 or FC498-06 , 3/8" rated 250 psi, 17 bar. Same thing that ford will sell you in little packages, cost sky high. You need 3 little aeroquip hoses - 2 about 1 3/4" and one shorter, - the 1 3/4 " hoses are ford part # F4TZ-9324-CA , the part # on the shorter hose F4TZ-9324-DA.<o></o>
You can use anything else that meets SAE J30R9 specs.
