Dear Europaphiles,
This is the article on fuel hose which refers to the properties of SAE 30R9 hose which is available in the US at NAPA and Autozone stores.stores.
See http://www.gates.com/common/downloads/files/Gates/brochure/TechTipsForm.pdf

Richard,
I found a post on the EAA site some time ago about using Gates R9 fuel injection
hose instead of the standard stuff which is usually sold in the states as R7,
or some variance thereof. The R9 has a Teflon sheath inside the line that is
supposed to be much more long lasting and theoretically wouldn't have to be replaced
as often. I used it everywhere I had a need for 1/4" or 3/8" hose that
was too tight to use versatube aluminum or where I had a need for 1/2" hose (just
at the pumps) since I was unable to locate R9 in 1/2".
But it ain't cheap; about $8 a foot.
