Fuel Hose Group Buy

[scourge at cogeco.ca (Scourge)]

I've been running rubber fuel lines from the pump to the dizzy on Blacky
since I got him(18 months). I love em!!  I'll never again spend the money on
hard lines, lol. It only cost me $40 canadian to run both fuel lines(supply
and return), and that was with a shop doing it for me. I guess the only
thing to watch for, is that you're getting good, high pressure lines.
