Replacing those should make a system feel solid again. I doubt if it matters what you replace them with. So I believe you when you say that your new stainless lines made a noticable improvement, but I think it's important to remember that this is a comparison between an OLD rubber hose and a NEW stainless hose. I just believe that you would have noticed the same improvement if you had installed new rubber hoses. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
