All the electronically fuel injected bosch systems use rubber line, and can get away with it since the pressure is ~ 35 psi, instead of 50-75 psi like on the cis. So, the choice of rubber line was dependent on the choice of EFI, rather than mechanical injection (albeit with electronic controls on the later models.) Joshua Van Tol -- jjvantol@uswest.net
