Custom ice box
lol They are called Cool cans and hey have been around for ever. You can do your fuel lines with sumpin as simple as a large pill bottle with a hole cut in it for the Fuel line and some silicon sealent around that. Lovely bit of 1950s tech there. the traditional method for air intakes and coolent hoses was to use a coffee can with a hole cut in it and a folded over lip so as not to cut the hoses and the gaps filled with sealent of some sort.

yeah ive seen this old method before.
you basically just use a can of some sort to surround a line, like your fuel or coolant, and fill that with ice.
its a very cheap quick way to achieve a result, though its not going to work as well as a true icebox, becuase the ice has to conduct the heat through the hose, and it doesnt have long to do it as the fluids move kinda quickly, not to mention they will only be against 3-4 inches of actual hose.
