copper fuel lines and fires
I've read the posts re: copper fuel lines causing fires. No one offers an explanation for why they may be a risk. Any theories out there? I had a very experienced engine builder use copper and I'm wondering why I should be concerned or if I should.
Thanks.

Vibration, fatigue (or over tightening), crack, leak, pow!Your Uncle Bob, Senior Geezer Curmudgeon
It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.
