Fuel Lines Options

[sjhenry1075]

Happy Wednesday everyone. So I have a little bit of a dumb question regarding replacing my fuel lines with SS lines. I purchased lines from Pelican. When I spoke with the salesperson he informed me that he would be including everything I needed in the kit. My question is, I received two sizes and types of hose along with the SS lines; which of these goes where? I have braided hose and regular hose. I appreciate any information you can provide. Again, I apologize if this is a dumb question.

Thank you both. I do have to admit that everyone has been very helpful; I just like to warn people in advance of my lack of knowledge.

So Last night I wanted to remove the lines so I could drain the tank. I reached into the access hole and there wasn't much slack on the lines so I gave them a little tug; both lines broke in half in my hand! Thank goodness I'm replacing them, that could have been disastrous!

I reached into the access hole and there wasn't much slack on the lines...

I looped the hoses so the hoses can be connected with the tank out of the cavity. There's already 15-20 feet of hoses and pipes between the tank and the engine. A couple more feet of hose won't make a difference.

While this works it is also not too difficult keeping the hoses short and accessing them through the large hole underneath. Before installing the tank, connect the lines and secure them to the lines coming from the tunnel. Have the hoses exit the hole and install the tank. It is not too hard to connect the hoses to the tank at that time. This saves the risk of a pinched line. But long lines work also......
