    Will this vacuum hose work?

    Hi, I'm replacing my fuel filter and wanted to know if this HPS 3.5 Silicone Vacuum Hose will work. Wasn't sure that because fuel would be around it, that it would hold up. Thanks!

    Get the right hose at the dealer. It’ll put live the car.

    Silicone hoses I am aware of are for hi-heat situations. Although expensive, we use them for exhaust hoses in marine business. Vacuum supply, I cannot answer your question. Vac hoses should always be resistant to collapse upon suction...

    It is stated in both the product features-product description section of your link:
    Silicone hose is compatible with water or anti-freeze such as coolant; Silicone hose is not compatible with fuel or oil
