Rubber rejuvenator ...?
Oooh errr missus ..... No, not that sort ... just aged, hardened rubber parts. In this case from the fuel line of a bike. It needs to be softened (as you can't get the part new anymore) so it'll work ... Any tips on softening it up?

You could try rubber and nylon lubricant, Halfords etc.
Forgotten make but I use it on doorseals etc.
Or a spray with silicone in like bumper restore stuff.
If it works clean excess off before refitting bits.
If the parts are washer type bits it's worth finding a local rubber supplier 'cos often they have lots of punches etc. to make washers. They usually have different thicknesses and types so tell them it's for petrol.
Worth finding a supplier as they can sometimes make something to suit.

I used to use glycerine on the rubber seals on some photographic/printing equipment. Just bought a bottle at Boots for 1.59 (labelled as cough medicine) to nourish the window seals on the Scoob
