<p>I used hydraulic hose for many years for a filler hose from my
several stationary tanks. Propane tanks have a relief valve with
a set pressure of 250psi, so it does not require an extremely high
pressure hose. I have some hoses from a local propane dealer
that were changed out from the trucks due to age. They don't have
any wire reinforcing, but they do have the perforated cover...
Propane is the best method of correcting the problems of pump gas
and carbureted engines. My IHC grain truck is on propane and
never fails to start and run fine. I am in the process of
converting about 4 of my trucks to propane due to the crappy
gasoline and the cost of fuel pumps and carburetor kits. <br>

<p>I installed many propane systems on pickups trucks
and tractors back when propane was only 0.12/gal. We
used copper for the lines from the tank to the heat
exchanger on all the trucks and tractors. We also
flared the copper lines they fittings were very
similar to water line fittings but we used
refrigeration grade copper. I have used air line for
both vapor and liquid propane many times and not had a
problem. In the old days i think the propane hoses
had a wire under the cover that made sure there was
conductivity between the tank and the heat exchanger.
The tank was bolted to the truck, and the heat
exchanger was bolted to the body, so I don't think the
wire in the hose was really needed. The use a wired
hose for a filler hose from the big tank to the fuel
tank just to eliminate sparks from static...<br>

<div dir="ltr">I was using my 65 with a box blade to
level my yard when it stoped as in out of fuel.
Began to refuel and noticed a leak in the hose
from the line that connects the vapor outlet from
the tank to the filter. I repaired it by using a
3/8 air line hose and finished what I was doing. I
don't know what propane will do to this line over
time. Is there a standard to look for to replace
this hose and where can I find it. BTW before I
got this tractor someone had replaced the liquid
line to the filter with copper tubing with a flare
fitting, is this a good fix.</div>
