REFLECTOR: hose

[Mark Magee]

If you are referring to vacuum lines and pitot static pressure lines I would recommend PEX or similar brand of cross-braided polyethylene. I have used this stuff for so many applications I won't bore you with: the stuff is as close to indestructible a product for what it is designed to do that there is. I think if you replumb in PEX/similars it will likely never need replacing in your lifetime plus whoever owns it after you as well.
Did I say I liked X braided poly tubing? :)

I need to usw 1/4” and 3/8” for pitot, static, and vac. Right now I have very heavy vinyl but it is very difficult to work with in cold weather. I was thinking along the lines of one of the rubber products.
