NO!! Don t do that! All the engine compartment fittings should be
steel for strength and fire resistance. I only have 3 hoses in my
entire engine compartment. One is the flex hose from the firewall to
the fuel pump, the other tow are to and from the oil cooler. All the
rest are Stainless steel lines.
