Replacing rubber oil lines
Hi all,
I would like to replace all my oil lines on my shovel. They are all original 1975 so its time. Can i use regular rubber hose from the auto store? Most of these indicate a temp range up to 212 degrees so wasn't sure I need something for higher temps? Hoping I'm able to get to all of the lines without removing major stuff like the inner primary.
Thanks,
Greg

Just used the fuel line from pep boys with those clamps and no issues. The old lines from my Sportster were crusty and surprisingly hard to slide out from under the starter. I sprayed a little wd40 on the new ones to help slid them in place and had to use a guide wire to fish them through. Not sure how your are ran.
