Now my research on here shows that rubber line should be ok pressure wise @ ~100PSI from the fuel pump.

I couldnt find any advise on why every one was trying to source the original Nylon line or upgrading to Steel.

Please help me to understand what I am missing here? Why cant I just replace all the Nylon lines with Rubber Fuel Injector Line (SAE J30R9).

Thanks!


You need at least 150 psi. fuel injected rated rubber hoses for your CIS. Rubber fuel injection lines rated 100 psi. is too close to a single FP max. delivery pressure in case of flow restrictions.
