Hi Dick,
I am only using about 10 inches of the rubber hose. It comes off the pump
and
back into the existing fuel line. The hose says "fuel line" but not for fuel
injection.
I just slid the other end of the hose over the old line for a few inches and
then
clamped it down real tight. It seems to be holding very well and it stopped
leaking.
I'll eventually replace the whole fuel line and will do that when I change
out the pump.
I just hope my quick fix doesn't somehow slip off and spew 93 octane all
over a hot engine.
I guess I better keep a fire extinguisher on board just in case?
Stuart
