Anthony K said:you have magic hose then, pull the hose end off and tell me if it looks perfect, there will be peices of black hose in there from the fuel breaking it down. unless you use Earls one time ends, check an Aeroquip. it probably "looked" good.....wet....... did you dry it off/out? and then look at it? why after time does rubber hose get soft? musshy? chemicals acting on the rubber,breaking it down.
