Re: 41C card reader writes but won't read Message #8 Posted by Randy Sloyer on 25 Jan 2003, 1:10 p.m., in response to message #1 by Dave Mabry
I have tried both, both work, but FWIW, I feel the fuel line is better. More surface area, etc, etc. I have found the only problem with fuel line is finding stuff that is concentric. I had to search for a while until I found some that was reddish in color, I no longer know the manufacturer of this, but I'm sure if you haunt the hobby shops, you'll find some that is suitable. I do know the Dubro brand that is light blue in color did not work for me, it was too irregular in diameter.
The O-rings I tried came from Mark Hoskins on eBay. When you buy a kit from him for $5 or whatever it is, you'll get about 10 or 12 rings, enough for at least 4 readers. He sends color printed instructions as well. I don't know the actual standard number for the rings, but they measure 0.245" OD x 0.100" ID with a thickness of 0.070".
If you have no luck with the search and want a couple of feet of tubing, email me and I'll snail mail you some.
