Fluoroelastomer In-Tank fuel hose
I have a question.
I'm completing work on my gas/fuel/Petrol tank and I need to use about 16" of 1/2" ID hose from the fuel collector to the bulkhead fitting. I've researched that the best hose for this application is Fluoroelastomer (rubber) hose as it stands to the corrosive effects of gasoline. I'm not able to find a source that sells this hose in 1/2" diameter. If any of you have this type of installation on your car what hose are you using, and how well is it holding up? Where is the best place to buy hose? Appreciate all feedback as usual. Thanks, Arthur |
There is a place here in Southern Calif called Hose Man. They may be able to help. Check out their site and/or give them a call.

You need hose that meets SAE J30R10, which is rated for in-tank service. Use anything else and the inner liner may last but the outer jacket will fail (become mushy and dissolve).
I know it is available in 5/16" ID for fuel injection in-tank applications, but the racing fuel cells suppliers would have it in larger diameters. Talk to Jim Harmon at http://www.harmonracingcells.com/ He's a great guy and will help you. I've bought several items from them. Rodger |
