If they replace that tubing with a gasoline compatible tubing, it will be acceptable. Is recommended to completely empty at the end of each flying session and not used for storage of gasoline. Also, they should be checked for leaks and possible deterioration once a month and replaced annually. JAL 7/30/99 ir/jl updt jxs 5/11/04 updated measurements tjt 123004
