Can this be used as a fuel line for boats?

RC boats yes. For Marine applications you should use a marine grade rated product

will this work for fuel injection?

Not sure, but I don’t think so unless it’s a drain hose. That’s what I’m using it for; I don’t think it would handle the pressure of fuel injection.

Is this ethanol fuel resistant?

not sure what the manufacturer claims, but from personal experience, it is better than the clear plastic, but ethanol is highly corrosive and will deteriorate the flexibility.

Is the Tygon version for gasoline or diesel fuels?

Yes, tygon is good choice for fuel line where high flexibility is required. Often used in small engine, 2 stroke fuel delivery to the carburator.

Tygon F-4040-A PVC Fuel And Lubricant Tubing, 5' Length, Transparent Yellow. Flexible Tubing for Small Engines Specifically designed to handle most fuels and industrial lubricants, Tygon F-4040-A lubricant and fuel tubing resists the swelling and hardening caused by hydrocarbon-based fluids. This significantly reduces the risk of failure due to cracking and leakage. Its minimum extractability safeguards the liquid or vapor being transferred against adulteration. Because it is extremely flexible, Tygon F-4040-A tubing for small engines simplifies installation, even in tight places. It is translucent yellow for positive identification and to allow easy flow monitoring and is routinely used to handle gasoline, kerosene, heating oils, cutting compounds and glycol-based coolants.
