Since this thread was last active, I have seen a small handful of cases of the gates submersible hoses failing just like what happened to Aviator44. I suspect that there was a bad batch produced by Gates. This was what prompted me to phase out the Gates submersible hoses and begin replacing them with convoluted PTFE or Nylon for our in-tank applications. That was why I sent you the updated PTFE hoses to replace them with since your kit was purchased around the same time. Id highly recommend installing them.
