yep..get braided ones ASAP... and clamp them... and secure them with wire. 🙂

Saying that tho... if you check non braided ones weekly to make sure the rubber is nice and supple and not cracked, you should be fine on a carburetted bus. 👍

If its FI tho... only use the expensive proper diameter and thickness braided hose... using stupicheap crap stuff with FI is asking for trouble! :duh
