My first time posting, and I forgot to add text before posting. Anyway, I just picked up these 2 never-fired new-old-stock MSR Fireflys yesterday, and can agree that they manufactured them with the plain fuel line tubing without any braided/fabric covering. As you can see by the photos in my prior post, the original tubing on the end of the pump is the same as the tubing supplying the fuel from the pump to the burner. It is so brittle from age. I'm going to have to check around for a suitable replacement fuel line and clamps. Gary
