I won't be able to sell these but one of the hardest parts to find on these old saws. I am hoarding these for resto projects

It almost looks like those lines could be made at a place that does custom hydraulic hoses. Ed

A member from another forum (Pastawon) has, had them at one time. Price appears to be a bit steep but if you need them.
From 2016 The set of two are $50.00 plus a shipping charge of $15.00 for a total of $65.00.
I just noticed that he is a member here too.

So I just received a message from the seller of the fuel lines and I'm all for making money but out right price gouging is a joke! The $60 lines are now $125 +$15 shipping. Needless to say I won't be doing business with the gentleman. I've had 2 sets made at a local hydraulic shop for $50.

I make my own. I've probably got $2.00 in materials.

That tool looks like an Imperial Eastman 525-F, there is one on feebay for $20 used. Looks like it really works well. If you don't have the fittings, they look to me like they mate with standard compression fittings. You could check that by trying a standard fitting on the mating side that you have on the saw. Does that sound right sawnami?

Does that sound right sawnami? Pretty close. I cut the ferrules off of the old fittings with a Dremel miniature cutoff wheel and reuse the fittings along with the internal spring that keeps the hose from collapsing when bent sharply.
