What To Use For Fuel Pickup Line?

[SaltyDog251]

I'm replacing the fuel lines in my 90 GT and the pickup lines in the tank look like surgical tubing.

What are they made of? Can I use the black rubber line for these? They appear in great shape. Should I leave them?

Use rubber automotive fuel line, probably 1/4".

If they look to be in good condition I don't see why you can't reuse them. But if you replace, make sure one is longer for the reserve and one shorter for the on position

I reused them, thanks

Unless you know when/if they were replaced, I highly recommend replacing them with standard 1/4 inch fuel line. There should be a small screen/check valve on the ends. These old fuel lines have a tendency to rot apart ... just think of the fun of being out on the lake when they fall off and you get to look at a fuel tank half full and lines not long enough to reach the fuel.
