I have PTFE hose on mine, but not purchased from this supplier. I found out that if you purchase Earl's PTFE hose, you have to use their fittings also. The other ones don't fit. In other words, if you buy Earls PTFE hose and Summit or Russell fittings, they will not fit.

That's fairly standard, you should never mix and match such parts from different suppliers.
All it takes is a small variance in diameter etc and the parts wont work and if fitted wrong...could be dangerous.
It's easier to get away with on some barb/rubber/compression type fittings, but never do it with teflon.

Just to throw this in, check to see if the ptfe hose is carbon or graphite lined as well. Helps to discharge static buildup from fuel line. Over time, pin holes can develop in fuel line due to static electricity trying to find its way to ground.
