Abstract
A layered fuel line for an engine fuel system includes a plurality of layers. The fuel line includes an inner layer and an outer layer material having a relatively high temperature resistance. The fuel line can include a barrier layer and intermediate layers. The fuel line can be included in a fuel line assembly that includes fittings capable of connecting to engine fuel system components. Silicone boots wrapping the fittings can increase the high temperature resistance of the assembly.
