Rename your car, "Good Penny!", since she is acting like, "Christine".

- Seriously sorry about your trouble. At least this showed it's ugly head where it did and not somewhere a lot more inconvenient.

Good Luck.

This is a rather common problem, many members from other forums have had the same issue with different tanks and lines. I have had the same thing happen to me and have read many threads of the same issues but with different manufacturers. At least you quickly found the problem.

who cares what caused it, get it fixed!!!!
thats a typical looking hose of many gm in tank pumps, maybe its a bad batch of hose, or something but get it done!!!
at least taking the sending unit out is easy enough!!

Looks like someone used their straw from Long John Silvers.

That is a whimpy looking hose..

What gets me is you can drive up to a car lot and drive off with a car and barely ever have any problems. You build a custom car with "custom" superior parts, and have nothing but little issues! It's always the accessories or little things that come up and piss us off.

He knows to check the boxes from Recaro now. He did take care of the issue ASAP when I called.

Steve,
That doesn't look like the hose we've been using in a Fuel Safe cell. The stuff we get looks like some type of aircraft push-lok hose made by Parker and it's rated at 250PSI.

Yea, I've done a little research and this does seem to be the same hose used inside factory tanks, so it should be good.

Maybe a thin wall durring manufacturing that was missed on the QC check. I wonder where I could buy this line locally or get it FAST?

I know Fuel Safe will send me a replacement but since it's Friday that means no fix until Monday.
