REFLECTOR: Fuel Sight Gauge Hose

[Jorge Bujanda]

I used that hose (polyurethane?) to make the level and noticed it clouds up with water so
I assumed it was not fuel resistant.  Thanks.

I just use the clear plastic hose from the hardware store.

Change it every 5 years, when it just starts to cloud up.
