RE: [T3] fuel line replacement

That rings a bell from my last T1 MC.  The 7mm black stuff is like $1.70 a
foot.

	I don't have any direct references, but the 7mm hose that we used to
put on
	porsches for the line between the brake fluid resevoir and MC was
special,
	blue and like 10$ a foot.  Now that I think about it, I think this
is stock
	with our cars as well.  Inductive logic tells me that regular fuel
line is
	therefore incompatabile with brake fluid!

	Just a thought!

	I should have commented on this.  I wouldn't use brake fluid here.
