My yellow "tygon" line has gone hard as a rock and I'm getting sick of replacing it. Any ideas as to a fuel line that lasts more than a season?

i run the blue urethane from parts unlimited, i get 5-6 years out of them, some more.

I went the local multi dealer shop and saw these 2 ft sections of fuel line made for Mx bikes tank vent tubes. Bought 2 for like 6$ and working great so far.

The pink color lines I use start going slightly hard after a few years, but I use fuel line quick connects from ebay to make taking the tank off easier. They are a bit bulky and do spill whatever fuel is in the line when disconnected but I have not had any problems with them in over 4 years Screenshot 2024-05-26 at 10-40-39 2 pair Fuel Line Quick Connect Release Disconnect Connector Gas 11.8mm SAE 3_8 eBay.png

I had one of these quick disconnects on my R5, I think it was Motion Pro brand. Worked great for removing the tank. Also have one for the RD that's a work in progress.
