fuel lines keep on falling apart..

well i installed a walbro 255 in my 87 maxima , And the two lines between the FPR and the fuel rails keep on falling apart ( Opening ) and it looks like some one cut them open with a razor blade...

I cant even drive the car without it doing this....

Any ideas ???

$$$$ and fuel.

You could also try the hoses I use. I get my fuel lines from NAPA Auto. They sell a more expensive line for hi pressure. I use nothing but the hi pressure lines on all my cars.( CARBS or FI.)

SEE NO Z.
