Well I asked the question a while back if anyone knew anything about the BLUE fuel line (ethanol resistant) course no one really know of it.
I got some today so will let everyone know about it. It may be common knowledge but the gray merc hose with orange or red writing on it is NO GOOD. Luckily all the main black hose from the pulse pump to the carbs and all the carb hoses are fine--but I had the merc with orange writing from the pulse pump to the filter (under the cowl) I split it and the liner was separated from the hose--the liner wasn't coming apart yet but it was close. I am changing the fuel lines from the tanks to the motor and from the motor connection to the filter--hopefully the blue hose is as good as the merc hose with blue writing--we will see.

A lot like the old Wannabe... except with fewer bad words. And Karate chop action. But, yes, still purtier than you.

Got it from Delta Marsh. I would really have rather had the merc gray with blue writing on it but this is all he can get right now. Plan on running it for a a few trips then cut it off and see what it looks like. It's supposed to work fine-but---I'll post some pics of the old line this evening to show what it is looking like--exactly one year of running E fuel.
I've only had this line a few months and try not to use e-fuel but have the line just in case I have to. Rob, at RJ's said it will last for years and I believe whatever he says about marine anything.
Iz thinking he charged a little more than $3/ft but even if it's $5+, it's worth it.
