I can’t say I remember what you are talking about, must have had a good batch or something.

I must have had “good” hose, as I don’t remember anything like that.  In fact the opposite, I couldn’t believe how much easier it was to use the 200 than the 100 previously.  I have a set of “kool tools” though, do you use them?

Nope, don’t really do enough Braided hose to warrant it till now..

Hyundai done, 36 back on the hoist!

They are not the kind of thing you use every day, but does make it easier.  Once again petty we arent closer together could have given you them to use.  Prob too late to post them over, your pretty much done right?

Yeah only have a few hoses left to do, thanks for the offer!

Easy as mate, anytime don’t hesitate, this sort of stuff gets a lot of use for short time then sits on the shelf, always happy to loan it out to the right person of course

Some more of my fittings arrived so I’ve been down getting my head around the new fuel system, thought I’d post a pic of why I have such an intense hatred of Aeroflow’s new Braided Teflon hose…

Jesus wept, that’s bullshit.  Mine did nothing like that, not even close.  Maybe that needs to be sent back?

Does NOT work with PTFE (Teflon) hoses

In fact, I reckon I still have a bit that’s been cut that’s just in the box hardly splayed if you know what I mean.  That must be a total pita.

Just the way it’s been woven, so frustrating to work with but I have it down now so no real stress..

Tbh its so long since I did any hose work on mine I don’t remember that.  I can’t believee that pic mate, seriosuly I couldn’t believe how easy the 200 series was to fit after working with the rubber.  Aeroflow seems to have a bad name, althought that wasnt my experience.

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

Think you might have forgotten which is which, 200 is Teflon Gary..

I thought that’s what I wrote?, ie the 200 (Teflon) being easier than the rubber.  But I am getting old!!

[Anonymous View build HERE Member since: January 1, 1970 Posts: 0]

But the Kool tool doesn’t work on Teflon???
