Funny you should mention that, but that was exactly what my husband said to mention to you when you came back.
Over the years they had found that the 1996/1997's OEM's rubber fuel lines needed replaced a little sooner then other years. All of their company trucks of that year had to have those OEM lines replaced years ago. Our Dodge 2500 is a 1998 1/2, and he's not had those issues with it.

We'll be up for a bit if you have any more questions.
