    Grey fuel line in splashwell.

    Don, out of curiosity is there a particular reason that Mercury uses the non reinforced grey from the bulb to the engine? Does it need to be more flexible or something?
    Just curious.

    More flexible, and less likely to be affected by HEAT. Also more UV resistant.
