What is the smaller tygon sizes used on the smaller saws and weedwackers? I am looking to purchase some off the bay but am not sure on the smaller sizes.
2 and 3 MM right?i would be searching another source if i was you. tygon is garbage and doesn't come in exact OE sized. either have to force it in the tank or drill the tank to fit the tygon snugly. put a piece of tygon in a saw, fuel it up with non ethanol fuel, then go check what the tygon did in a couple weeks. seeing what it does with good fuel, it's almost scary to think what it would do exposed to ethanol.

I've never heard of Tygon being bad. We use it often in the shop.
.080 x .140 line is what poulan, weed eater, craftsman use on the supply side. Briggs and Stratton # 695542
3/32 x 3/16 is the return side on those same trimmers/saws.
the newer line that is resistant to ethanol is 3 times more expensive and doesnt seem to last longer. the inner liner shrivels up and cuts off the fuel supply but yet still looks and feels good from the outside. Tygon is the way to go but remember anything made after 2012 needs the fancy low permeation line or the EPA will come after you
The newer 30% resistant fuel line from Oregon is nice. After a discussion on another forum, I brought in rolls of the 5 most common sizes and guys really seem to like it.
