coriolis1 02-26-2005, 06:19 PM Does the rubber fuel line, such as what is used in secondary pre and post OEM filtration need to be rated specifically for fuel injected systems? Reason I ask - the previous owner of my truck had an auxiliary tank at one point, and the hose along the inside of the frame rail says it's for non fuel injected systems, and I'm thinking about replacing it with hose that is rated for it. What do y'all think? Horse Trainer 02-26-2005, 06:46 PM Hose for fuel injected systems has a higher pressure rating than the other. As that line is under suction, either one should be fine. Probably, the line for injected engines is better quality, and it is a bit more rigid. coriolis1 02-26-2005, 09:58 PM Yeah, that's kinda what I was thinking. Better to go with FI hose.

Frank Diesel Power 02-27-2005, 02:02 PM either will work just fine. just make sure its rated for diesel. keith_2500hd 02-27-2005, 08:09 PM if possible i would replace as much of this hose with tubing and reduce down to 6" to1ft less to worry about getting damaged or suction collapse, though FI has stiffer wall IMHO, keith coriolis1 02-27-2005, 08:13 PM Do not waste your money on HP hose.
