The hose will need to be fluorosilicone lined to tolerate fuel use. Samco / Roose / SFS etc. can make hoses with this lining but it needs to be specified at the point of order.

Try Auto Silicone Hoses for all your silicone hose stuff Scott, I've used them many times and they've always been spot on with very reasonable prices too!
