Paul--

I just bought fuel injection fuel line from Pep boys with a 5/16" of 7.9mm
inner dimention. I couldn't find any forign parts store here just yet. I am
ordering the correct hose from Ken at Vanagain.com in the next week or so to
replace all my fuel line. But the hose I got from Pep Boys is rated at
working pressure og 100psi and burst strength of 500psi, for what that's
worth.
