One more thing about the OEM hose. Yes the OUTER sheathing cracks and falls off, but that does not mean the inner NYLON core is compromised (CRACKED,KINKED or LEAKING) It just looks BAD. I would like to know who the Original manufacture of that hose is and if they ever did any kind of long term testing.

I think it has been proven that NYLON core is better than TEFLON. Now I'm wondering what the the inner core is of the SS braided fuel lines is.
