I was told VP does not sit well for long periods of time, becomes caustic.
I removed the line from my car as it was letting vapors thru and stinking up garage. it was braided, about 7 or 8 years old I think.
I have new russel line in it now, and the smell is gone.
Like I said my friend bought a car that sat for a short while, maybe long don't know. He proceeded to get it running w fuel system in car and the deteriorated braided line filled the regulator and carb with junk. never got carb right again. cleaned the cell, replaced the line, ok now. ruined carb tho, and after I sold him my good back up, ughhh.
