Repairing Hydroflame furnace FA-7615
Hooked up a Hydroflame FA 7615 furnace to electric and gas and the blower works ok however it won't ignite. Tried several times as sometimes furnaces take a few tries before they will ignite the burne...

Took the FA-7615 a part and cleaned up all the dirt and dust using a pressure washer. There's still some rust and corrosion in a few areas that perhaps needs to be wire brushed. However then entire furnace appears to be in good shape and the burner appears to have had very little use.
All the wiring and component pretty much stayed connected so I won't need to figure out what wires go where and to what components.
However there are a couple of things I need to address before reassembly
1. combustion hose ~1.25" x ~12" that goes between the burner and electric fan.
2. gasket material for the igniter and burner. Appears to be made from sort of fireproof fiber insulation with foil backing.
I would like to replace both as there is some damage to the combustion hose where it made connections and the wire inside the hose is rusted. I would also like to replace the gasket material around the igniter and burner.
I've been looking around but haven't been able find hose or gasket material. I'm certain it's out there but perhaps not all that easily found.
