Replaced it today, I knew it would give you shivers. Not just emissions quality rubber, but the finest fluoroelastomer, SAE 30R9 compliant, and carefully mounted so the stamping was pointed downward so as not to spoil the beauty of the plain black hose. Yessirreee, replaced the little two inch connecting hose right off the carb base as well. Constant tension clamps on the ends. Yep, I know you're going nuts now. So just feast your eyes.
