I think we have to start referring to that word as "that pokey thingy", or "not smooth", or "ribbed for hose pleasure"

anybody happen to know what size line that is?

I believe 5/16th? I used some black silicone line from Pegasus. Handles heat better than the stock rubber.

And I didn't mean that the line was attached to throttle cable. I should have paid more attention to what I was submitting.

I will check on this today. Seems the only time I feel inclined to search around under the "bonnet" is after I have been driving around for 30 minutes. Once I sit down and turn on the TV, I don't want to walk back outside in that 100 f***** degree heat. Texas...
