Barbed fittings vs push-to-connect fittings.

@WimB- Viton is readily available in various imperial and metric IDs from McMaster Carr here in the USA. Not sure about Europe, though as mentioned, it is widely used in automotive fuel systems. I believe Dreamworks carries it as well. Be sure to use the softest Shore rating available. It will remain a bit stiffer than Tygon once immersed, but not enough to affect clunk performance.

I think folks should just go with what they like, I personally like barbs on my fuel system but I have used festo on different applications. Either system will work if done properly

I agree Matt. It is a shame that some people behave like this, posting wildly inaccurate information. Maybe they do it on purpose.. I have found this to be an interesting discussion, which has been contributed to by some very experienced modellers.
