There are two other threads about this, one was in the last few weeks - some very amusing ideas came up so worth a read.

( Sorry I'm not able to do links )

Its sound proofing to stop the pipes rattling, its in a bag to stop engine bay muck etc degrading it and it falling apart.

Hi Guys
I'm new to this forum stuff, but is it really ther to stop the fuel pipes rattling. I removed mine and no sound, so is more like stopping chaffing, and subsequent rupture?

Either/or.
