I need to replace the fuel filter and the fuel line that runs from the tank to the fuel filter.
(under the gas tank) Currently, the fuel line from the tank to the filter is kinking, causing limited flow..... So..... how long do I make the line from the tank to the filter? I notice there is limited space under the tank. Too short, and the line will bend when you lowere the tank..... too long, and the line will bunch up...... again causing a possible bend. Anyone know a good length? I am thinking about 10 inches...... but it's just an eyeball guess. Hoping to finish this up today..... i look forward to your advice. |

Isn't the 2 feet hose after the fuel filter? Other posts I have read talked about 2 feet but he was asking from the tank to the fuel filter.
I'm following this thread since I need to install a new filter and SS fuel lines and have the same question about fuel line length before and after the tunnel. |

No, the fuel filter to pump hose is: From the Porsche PET Fuel hose * C 11 X 17.5 470 MM (abt 19") You do know that we're talking about a late car w/ pump up front? |
