dont think PVC will do mate it will melt under the bonnet as surfs do run hot under there, best get some proper fuel grade hose
best safe than sorry

you'll have to wait, only barrelled the beer this morning, got another 3 wks before it will be settled and clear,

made it using malt, grains, hops - not one of those tinned kits - tastes much better!

I've got clear fuel hose for my Peugeot 106 Diesel. It's proper fuel hose, but that's all I know about it. Trouble with it though is it's too soft, and it was rubbing on my battery. Caught it just in time, had to tape the hose up and cable tie it out of the way. So you can get it but where, I couldn't tell you?
