fuel line

[mopar7172]

i have a 5/16 fuel line is the any way i could convert it over to a 3/8? without gettin a 3/8 fuel line.

No.
Well maybe if you plug one end and blow on it really hard with 1000 psi pressure.

Kind of need the fuel line to make it work. Did you mean sender? Could maybe mod the one you got.

 

[mopar7172]

the one goin to the fuel pump.

Changing one side without changing the other side will be useless. You need to change the sending unit, put 3/8 line on it, get a pump with 1/4" pipe inlet and outlet you can adapt down to 3/8 flare and replace the line from the pump to the carb with 3/8. My guess is, you probably do not need 3/8 line anyway. Most cars do not.

3/8" won't help, just hurt. The larger the line, the harder the pump has to work. BB's came with 5/16".

The green1 speaks with fork-ed tongue not.

You need at least a 3/8th inch line to make a 3/8th inch line.

My 73 Scamp /6 has 5/16 fuel lines. So I would assume yours would be the same. Keyword assume.. lol
