The blue stuff IS translucent, and will work ... but it eventually
discolours too ... Should be good for a year or 2 though...
You haven't been running car gas have you ??? That's a no-no
for at least a few hundred hours ... and bad gas can discolour
tubing within a few DAYS !!!
I've tried Tygon, and several others - Canadian Tire stuff for
windshield wipers worked !! Just the luck of the draw - keep trying !!
THAT'S why I recommend installing a small shut-off valve at the
bottom of the sight guages - makes it a LOT easier to change
the tubing .... no need to run a tank dry !! ;-)
Glad to hear you are progressing so well - keep going ....
it's a looonnnnngggg winter !! ;-( Your insurance will drop
a whole bunch once you pass 100 hours solo !!! :-)
Maybe you need a trip to Sun 'n Fun in March !!! ;-)
