Gil, I ordered it from McMaster Carr.....can't remember the exact diameter, but they have several sizes to choose from.

They have it in Black or opaque. I got the black and it is the same stuff as the red.

I'll admit it I'm getting old and so I've probably lost those grey cells that knew what engine shut off tubing was. Would you refresh my memory? [:0]

Roy it's the red fuel line that's from the venturi to the regulator, this kinda fuel line is VERY easy to pinch, its awesome with the set up I run in open b, bad thing about it it's that it doesn't last as long as the regular silicon fuel line.

Dane, i'll see there catalog, its gonna be hard to know because I don't even have a small piece I can measure from.
