true, but it depends if it is a bypass or full flow oil cooler arrangement. and the pressure in the oil filter WILL be full engine pressure (since the oil goes from pump to filter then to block) which (in my case) is around 60psi at normal temps, and 80psi when cold.
"SAE30R7"

Quote: | My experience (as someone who's in the state that originated oxy fuels 10 years ago is that the old type flex line, carb-rated, and stamped SAE 30R7, gets soft and gummy and/or hard and brittle in oxy fuels, and that the nylon fuel filters sold by various companies can craze and get sticky/soft in it.
Solutions to These Problems
Replace the flex line in your fuel system - ALL of it - with EFI (Fuel Injection) hose, stamped SAE 30R9. This stuff is good to 900 psi and resists EVERYTHING. Although EFI line should, by now, be available in most reasonably-well-stocked auto parts stores, there are still some clueless counter staffers who will try to pawn-off regular fuel line (SAE 30R7) as EFI hose.

so 30R6 and 30R7 are "premium" fuel and vapour hoses, and soR9 is fuel injection hose? i should check my car as i have parker hose from enzed....
meh, it'll be fine for a while at least if it starts hardening, chenge it?
btw, anyone have an SAE standards account?
