Default RE: Silicone Fuel Line Rotting !!

ORIGINAL: phatbob02

Hey Guys,
I bought a 30' roll of silicone fuel line from Tower last year. This year I'm having trouble with my planes and I find out that the tubing has turned to Gummy Bear consistancy! I've never seen this before and I've been flying for over 20 years.

My fuel is 15%/18% Byron.
Can someone recommend a good fuel line brand?

I had the same thing happen to me . I sent that fuel line back and bought some prather(sp) and it has been great even when left submerged in the jug of fuel.
