Re: [Mgs] Oil bummer

In 1986 I installed a Teflon lined oil pressure hose form Moss 
Motors, life-time guarantee.  It is still hanging in there 27 years 
and 1/4 million miles later (same as the two fuel hoses at the 
carburetors).  Teflon is good stuff in contact with 
petrochemicals.  It predates but survives our switch to 10% ethanol fuel.
