Hmm, I thought I was the only guy getting crappy fuel hose. Mine 
doesn't last more than a year. And as Dan said, it fails by splitting 
along some kind of seam.

I used to get marine hose, but the last time I went into a marine parts 
store, their fuel line looked as if it was standard automotive stuff.

I'm waiting for Richard's treatise on making my own stainless braided 
line. In the meantime, I'll probably have to change the fuel line.
