Default RE: Neoprene, Tygon, and Viton UV Resistance

Neoprene i not especially UV resistant, but getting a couple years before replacing is not bad. Tygon stiffens with age and the low grade stuff stiffens and expands a litle after exposure to gasoline. Viton is as good as it gets but costs more. It comes down to what you want to spend.
