hey guys i need to replace my fuel sending unit in the tank and the lines running from it along the frame to the engine there all rusted. Anybody have this issue or ideas of what would work?
Thanks

 

yeah when I replaced my fuel lines they were all very rusty.

If you have the extra coin now would be a good time to upgrade your fuel pump to and air dog or fass system. they come with everything you will need to replace all the old lines, just not the return lines.

Or just buy some fuel hose and run some new lines

 

OEM supply is 3/8" and return is 5/16". Dont use regular fuel line for a gas jobbie. diesel rated fuel line is the best. You can get it from:

Vulcan compound turbo components, AirDog Systems, FireBall injectors, DrawStraw? Big Line Kits, VP silicone boot kits, gauge installation components, metric adapters & fittings, FASS, Quadzilla, Edge,AirDog, DTT Trans, ISSPRO, HTT Turbo, AFE, Veg pum

or from here:

MMI Marine - TRIDENT RUBBER,INC - 365-0565 TRIDENT "BARRIER LINED" TYPE A1-15 MARINE FUEL LINE HOSE, 5/16 X25 (REEL BOX)

 

Thats right, I should have said this as well

 

The local truck shops around here sell the 3/8 rubber line for .75/ft.

 

Thank you guys very much, i guess i will think about going all out. mine as well do it right the first time right. Thanks again.

 

You may also want to replace the short pre-formed rubber elbow that goes between the lift pump and pre-filter/heater.

You can buy the Cummins part number for $25 or the Dodge part number for $8. I got lucky and found one at the local dealer.

Dodge part # 4883978-AA. Geno's has the Cummins part number.
