Fuel line solution for rear tank
In order to use as much hard line as possible to run the fuel line from my blazer tank to the front of the truck I done the following. I purchased 3 straight 5 foot sections of 3/8 brake line from NAPA which is preflared and has fittings for each end. I also purchased some brass fittings (adapters) to connect the hard line with my electronic fuel pump and regulator. The fuel pump and regulator are universal Mr Gasket brand purchased from Advance Auto parts. The only rubber line section will connect the in tank fuel sender to one side of the fuel pump. You guys not needing an electric pump, the setup will be just that much more easy. The third section of line (at the front of the truck) will have to be bent or cut off and a small section of rubber hose utilized. I am bending these sections to follow the brake line from the rear of the truck with a Summit brand hand bender. The line works very easily, as I am a novice about fabricating hard lines.
Just wanted to post this, hard line is so much safer than running a rubber line for the entire system. I hope it helps somebody.
