What are you guys using for clear fuel line? Is there something at a hardware store? just not sure of material. The only stuff I can find is on line can't seem to find any at auto parts stores.

Exactly autoparts stores are starting to sell now also
I heard somewhere that the clear lines get old and stiff a lot quicker than the normal black ones. They do look cool, though. I've seen them in a transparent green as well, but I guess you'd be able to get them in any color. Just check online shops, that's what I would do

Yes they get stiff quite fast. Marine supply places will have it too. It's exposure to sun that stiffens them. The can be hard to work with after that.

go to a lawn mower shop get 1/4'' tygon fuel line, it's see thru and stays flexible

The ones I have had have always stayed "flexible" but they do get quite stiff. Not stiff enough they break, but stiff. Not impossible to work with either, but more difficult than rubber.
