Replaced fuel filter - Question
Now, I noticed there is another line that appears to run from the filter to the actual pump? Does anyone know the official name or part number for that other hose? I haven't buttoned up my tank yet and I'd like to go ahead and replace it too. My dealer was having trouble finding the part number. All they could tell me was that it was included with a new fuel pump. For 190 bucks I'll take it to the forum first.
I have seen the submersible rubber hose thread. I'd rather not go that way if I don't have to. I'd like to just get the actual OEM hose with fittings.
Thanks.

FEATURES:
Made of high-tech plastic
Superior to all types of natural and synthetic rubber hoses (including SAE 30R7/9/10)
Highly resistant to solvents / chemicals in modern pump and race gas
Ethanol (E-10 / E-85) compatible
Corrugated construction allows for tight bend radiuses and resistance to kinking
Isolates / reduces noise which is a byproduct of pump pulsations
High-flow capacity
Mandatory for all modern cars and trucks which no longer use rubber components in their fuel system
Modern fuel systems no longer use rubber components because of their incompatibility with modern enhanced pump gas which contains ethanol and other solvents such as toluene, xylene and MTBE. Unlike these flex tubes, rubber hose will break down very quickly when exposed to these types of fluids. This will allow vapors to leach into the atmosphere and cause the hose to swell and burst. Rubber particles may also contaminate a modern fuel system causing jet pumps, siphon pumps, check valves, regulators, diverters and injectors to fail. When replacing a fuel pump in a new fuel system, it is imperative that a new fuel tube be used. Racetronix uses fuel tubes in all of its late-model fuel pump assemblies to guarantee compatibly and reliability with the factory fuel system.
