[QUOTE="GNandGS, post: 1064109918, member: 23783"] I haven't had to buy here so cannot guide anyone on buying. If shopping around, it might be easier to ask for a spec rather than saying "hose". http://www.goodyearep.com/productsdetail.aspx?id=10534 That is just an example. You can see the high burst pressure and temp rating. Regular hoses or ones rated for too low a pressure can break.... if lucky you will notice the hose bulging first. Compare the above link and specs to FUEL hose from same vendor: http://www.goodyearep.com/ProductsDetail.aspx?id=5144 You can use most anything and get away with it - at least for a while. Some cars have a lower operating pressure than others also and the external pressure range in the line is usually under 500psi. If you noticed this is below the rated burst pressure of good fuel line. This is why some will tell you "it works" to use fuel line. The issue or risk is that the pressure is still higher than normal range for fuel line. Hope this all makes sense. If you lose pressure from a line while driving on fed highway it will dump ATF at a VERY fast rate. The ideal is to use metal lines, no rubber. This isn't always practical though. Asking for Power steering hose might be an alternative choice of words. Just check or ask for the spec. My .02sen, grains of salt, IMO, mileage may vary, etc[COLOR="Silver"] [SIZE=1]---------- Post added at 09:51 AM ---------- 6 hour anti-bump limit - Previous post was at 09:43 AM ----------[/SIZE] [/COLOR]Oh: ACE hardware might carry. Check the spools but also the bubble packaged stuff... they might have precut bits. More expensive than spool price.
