I used 5/16" plastic air line for my fuel line. Got it from a hose
supply company (specialize in hydralics and air fittings/hoses). This
tubing is as original and I'm using it with the stock T and fuel pump
and have had no leak problems. The tubing attaches to the fuel outlet
in back and at the pump with brass fittings and with a clamp at the T.
