Fuel Hose (Line) Replacement
#5

Spoke with pittsburghpower today about my fuel lines. They felt just about any new diesel fuel hose would be fine and they are currently using Weatherhead, an Eaton product. Regarding the size of the line, they are powering much bigger engines on smaller diameter hose, but they are not pulling the fuel as far. He thought it might be a good idea to stick with the -12 to provide a buffer for the 20 feet of draw. Keep them tied up and no reason to worry about abrasion. They also suggested a fuel restriction gauge as a way to monitor filter life and troubleshoot future problems.

I wont get to this project for a couple months now but will post updates when I get started.
