"Fuel lines... is generally rust proofed by being copper or zinc plated."

If i may add something,

The part thats being assumed is the plated part. These are externally plated, not internally. Even the Cohline (Porsche OEM) tubes that i'm using in my kits arn't internally coated. They're refurring to exterior rust, not internal.

Now the flex line connectors, crimps, and cap nuts are fully cad 2 (zinc) plated because they are smaller and are easier to dip into complete solutions, whereas tubing is manufactured is long lengths and externally washed through the solutions.

Point taken. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)
