Default Re: fuel tubing as replacement brake tubing?

Conventional brake fluid is Polyalkalene Glycol Ether according to http://www.apracing.com/motorcycle/fluid/index.htm

I can't find this (or similar description) listed in rubber resistance tables like http://www.baxterrubber.com/resistance-pg1.html
(unless it comes under the general grouping of "glycols")
but having said that, the sort of rubbers usually used for gasoline fuels generally have quite good resistance to most "non aggressive" liquids, so I'd guess you'll be OK.
