Reply With Quoteyour best bet would go to your local boat store. I tried to use a different kind of hose you know the kind you find a Home Deopt and the gas dried it out, and peices broke off into my tank. Don't take any chances with your fuel. Just my .02
Has anyone replaced their fuel tank pickup? I need to replace the tiny little tube Sleek used in my boat, it is about 3/16 ID. I have a 3/8 pipe thread on top of the tank, and need a flexible tube about 15" long to go in there. Anyone have suggestions on where to get such a tube?
Thanks,
Paul

I generally get a 3/8 pipe to #8 stainless fitting and weld some 1/2 stainless tube to it. Put it to 1/4 inch of the bottom of the tank.
The tube needs to be flexable because I don't have straight shot at the opening.

Hey SleekPanther....I had pick-up tubes made for my 23' tunnel. Came from RDS Manufacturing in Florida. However, I decided to go ahead and change the complete set of fuel tanks with 3/4" pickups. I still have the 1/2" flexable pickups. They are 17" long but can be trimmed. If you want the Manufacturer's address and phone # just PM me.
