Silicon for canister needed!
Hi, where did you guys get the silicon tubes for the canister mounting? The lines for glow fuel are to small, will Tygon fuel lines work or will they melt? Thanks!

Agreed, Tygon will melt and burn/singe their way apart.

Nitro fuel line will work well, and you can get it from your local hobby shop.

Re: Silicon for canister needed!
Go online to scuba shops. That is where I got mine. Its way cheaper than any R/C or surgical shops. You can get it in all sorts of sizes.

Re: Silicon for canister needed!
Again, for can mounts just get the LARGE tubing from
http://www.mcmaster.com/#tubing/=4ax2w5 http://www.mcmaster.com/#tubing/=4ax3l8 This is the same stuff that comes in most kits and pre-made can holders. It is cheap, and they ship same day. I live only 2 hours away, and get every order the next day. Can't go wrong here. wayne |
