Fuel Line Question?

take your original sending unit out and take it to a gas tank shop. They can redo your sending unit with a larger 3/8" pickup and tube and it will look original and work like the original. It shouldn't cost that much. I did mine that way on the granada and also have a new 3/8" steel fuel line made up like the original 5/16" line running under the car in the OE location and is working great, no issues at all.

FYI in case you're not sure 5/16" is smaller than 3/8" (which is really 6/16" ) and 3/16" is smaller than 1/4" (which is really 4/16" )
