Been chasing around for 5/16" Bundy tube for new fuel line. After a bad experience with the local ABS dealer I've been avoiding them but after 1/2 hour on the phone this morning they were the only place that said they had any. After waiting 20 minutes while they tried to get the printer to print an invoice I walked out with my tube only to find when I get home it is 1/4" and the wall thickness is so thick the inside diameter is smaller that the one I'm trying to replace :evil:
