High pressure, no. Just make sure that it won't collapse under suction.

Dave is correct...

Does not need to be high pressure,just needs to be a good quality hose that will not collapse under suction load.Either a good marine based fuel line or a fuel injection type hose would work very well as they would stand up to the elements very well......Andy
