I have another mustang im doing a fuel system on and were trying to decide which fuel hose to use. Already bought a small piece of Earls Perform-o-Flex hose and it seems nice. I like it alot, but the box says they dont know the long term effects from some fuels. We may end up running the car on e85, so if we use this hose for the rest of the fuel system I want to make sure it is capable of handling e85. Heres a link....Holley Performance Products 3 ft. PC Hose - Size 10, ID .5625, OD .796875 403010ERL
will this hose work with e85
- Thread starter 95snake03
- Start date
i guess noone knows? i dont want to use $400 worth of hose and it only last me a short while
why not call them and ask? let us all know too!
From the description I would say no.

I'm running the Earls Pro-Lite 350 hose on mine with no issues and it has that same disclaimer about being unable to guarantee that it is the best possible product to use.
I called Earls and they reccomend I do not use it, although Ive herd of several people using it with E-85. I cant find nice -10 and -8 BLACK teflon hose!!! any reccomendations!?
I am running Eaton Aeroquip FC350 hose with reusable Galvanized Steel fittings. No weep or odors.
The FC350 is kind of overkill for fuel line, but it works great. 1250 psi max operating pressure and 5000 psi min burst pressure.
Here are the specs.
Construction: AQP elastomer tube, polyester inner braid and a single wire braid reinforcement; black polyester textile braided cover. Application: Air, gasoline, fuel lubricating oils and coolants.
Ethanol Rating "E" Excellent

well I dont want to use black hose on my car. Im just going to cut a small piece of the earls hose and put it inside a container full of e85 and let it set like that for a month straight. Then ill pull it out and if its still good ill go ahead and order all the hose but if it gets ate up by the e85 ill go with something else. The car wont be running for a few months anyways

My guess is nothing will happen in a month.... long term is more of a year plus.
I get it locally here in Dallas from Texas Rubber Supply Co. The make it all the way up to -24 if you want. LOL
I'm sure it will be fine. Skaarew04SVT has been running the Fragola line for a year and a half and it still looks perfect.
They said that about the Pro-Lite 350? I'm on my 3rd year now with no issues.
Yah I have a feeling its a liabity issue, for "if" the line fails while using e85.
Yeah, I think so too. "If" I ever have any issues with it I'll post up in here to let everyone know.
I am running Aeroquip PTFE Stainless Steel operating psi 3000. Can run almost any chemical in the world through it. -10an feed -10an return.
Sorry but im lmao right now of the pic.
Godstang ....you are showing you elephant trunk through the jeans.
You must of just got your fittings crimped on and got excited. lol:beer:
Dude I so was!!! Haha I noticed after I posted it and was hoping no one saw it.
^^no problem....it sure was funny.
