thanks Larry, I have my aluminum hard lines still in good shape. I am looking at specifically the soft line required for running to the carb from the gascolator. Because of engine movement, it of course needs to be flexible. Whatever that blue line was that I used the last time, I will not use it

Jeff, Good to hear you're getting back in to flying shape.  See you at the Gathering? I can't help with the carb cable safety as I run a Marvel-Schebler on the 0-200.  As for fuel lines I use 3/8" aluminum from tank to gascolator and flex hose from there to the carb.  Many types of plastic
