The techs used 1/2" I.D. fuel line for the engine, 3/8" I.D. for the generator, and 1/4" I.D. for the A-H.  I think I heard a tech told he should have used 1/4" for the generator but the line was already cut to size.

My U295 is a late 2003 model. Will I be needing to replace the fuel lines in a few years, or was FT already using better materials when mine was made?

Thanks Brett, that is what I thought as I fixed a leaking line last winter in my friends CC 2006 and he has the "new" plastic hose in his and it was 1/2 id. I know the Aquahot uses the small line as I took one out and apart a few weeks ago and they were 1/4. Now to locate the tubing this week or next for when I decide to do it.

Our 1997 U295 has the Cummins C8.3-325 engine and the Kubota four cylinder engine for the Powertech generator. In replacing the fuel lines, FOT used three sizes of HTFL fuel line and a short section of line that I think was a rubber line with a braid cover. We do not have Aqua-Hot. Some pictures and more information are here: Old Fuel Lines
