What's the difference between vacuum hose and fuel hose?
My dad gave me a bunch of old vacuum hose and fuel line he had sitting around from years ago. He's forgotten which is which. Is there a difference in they way each is constructed, or are they interchangeable providing they're the same size?
Thanks
Thanks

The vacuum line will slowly soften or dissolve in gasoline. The fuel line will be made of a material that will resist the solvents in gasoline.
