What is the Gates green stuff you refer too? I bought some fuel line at NAPA a couple yrs ago, I think it was Gates and had something about green on it but memory isn't great so I may be mistaken. They charged me $5 a foot for it and told me it'd stand up to ethanol but it didn't. Did exactly what Oklacarcollector described. Turned to jelly inside within a month. Ever heard of that? Thanks
