Why?

The local Napa Autoparts dealer had a new high pressure line with the
correct fittings and restrictor for a whopping $27.00 (!).  And it comes
with a lifetime warranty.

Here's a shot of what they look like, the one on the left is the one pulled
from the car (note the squishy bellowed out look on the end), the one in the
middle is the good used one from my old parts car, and the one on the right
is the Napa hose:

Had one on my car for a little over a month and it's doing fine.

HTH.
