Yesterday the fuel line on my 91 Loyale, the clamp-on hose that connects the gas tank to the fuel pump, started leaking where it connects to the fuel pump. Went to the parts store to get a replacement. The largest they had was 3/8". That didn't fit. Looks like 7/16", or some metric size like 11mm or 12mm. This car is fuel injected, so it needs fuel line rated for higher pressure than carbed fuel line. Parts guy says 7/16 only comes in carbed rating, so I should try Sube dealer. Tried dealer, he's clueless. Any thoughts?

The line that takes fuel from the tank to the pump isn't pressurized. It is a suction line. Any good fuel line that will fit the nipple on the pump should do fine.

Great to know! Thanks for the info.

5/16 is the size I used when I replaced my fuel lines...
