Thought this was worth it's own thread because I can't find an answer to this...
I planned on swapping out -6 and smaller aluminum fittings FWF for steel but there was mention in my red cube thread that the black oxide steel fittings readily available at ACS should not be used in fuel lines because of the possibility of corrosion from water in the fuel.
Is this really a concern? Seems the oxide conversion coating is on there for this exact purpose. Also, I don't run ethanol mogas.
I though about stainless but they're harder to find.
The main reason for swapping to steel...my red cube is "free-floating" and I want the extra strength in the fittings.
