The clear plastic won't stay clear for long, but the new stuff was considerably less brittle than the old, and after 30 years it just seemed like a good idea.

Thats sort of along the lines of what I'm thinking...I'm going to have the whole fuel delivery system apart potentially.
For clarification for those reading about bio-diesel: the B100 will not affect these lines (as TM mentioned).
