Oil line fix

[shootrj2003]

Pardon my ignorance,but,can I use fuel line as oil line on me XL rebuild?

Oil is much more viscous than gas... I'd expect you'd want larger diameter tubing for it, but I don't know for sure.

Nitrile/Buna-N/NBR are suitable for use with petroleum products. Tygon 4040 is also suitable for petroleum products but make sure you get the real thing as there are many wannabe "Tygon" materials floating around.

In short, if the material is suitable for fuel it will be suitable for bar oil as well.
