I hate when that happens

The pressure-side fuel line (between the pump and the hard-line) let go on the way home today. I had to call for the AAA truck. And the neighborhood shop did not have any 1/4" FI hose.
So it's a Subaru for me tomorrow and hopefully get 6 feet of fuel hose on the way home.
Friggin one year old FI fuel line.
OK, I'm done now.

OReillys, NAPA et al carry Gates multifuel.
Modern fuels eat the "wonderful quality Original German" 7mm woven EFI hose as a snack.
I found that out many moons ago when I went to convert to EFI from CIS and the hose started oozing fuel everywhere.
(it also was ~ 1 year old "OG" 7mm hose.)

This was ordinary, modern 1/4" FI hose.
Modern hose for modern fuel.
OK NOW I'm done.

No reason to, really. I just have a whole Subaru to drive when something like this happens.
