<VV> Braided fuel lines

[Kent Sullivan]

My Webers are too... Picture at the bottom of this page:

I really like the braided lines. Hard lines for this setup would be a lot of
work and using rubber fuel hose is a disaster waiting to happen!

Never seen any with plastic.  Depending on the type and manufacturer there
are different materials used for the liners.  All that I am aware of will
melt/burn is subjected to open flame..
BTW - my Webers are plumbed with braided lines.
