BTW, I started putting the resurrected hoses in today and a little trick for those that need it.  Almost every braided hose I've come across has little "frays" on the end like this

what i do is wrap the end in this cloth electrical tape

once you put the tape around its really easy to trim those loose hairs with a standard scissor and you aren't struggling with the braids unwrapping while you do it.

the color is a perfect match and once the clamps go on you cant even see it

 

You can also use a lighter, the cloth wrap has some percentage of synthetic material in it so seals it self up with the heat.

Thanks granny good to know, will try that next time. Just not on the old fuel hoses 🤣
