Had to move the fuel tank to the front of the boat . What’s the best way to run the lines? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Depends on your hull design, some go under the floor between the bracing, some have pipe welded down the sides, some have flat bar welded over the side crimp to make a channel. You can get hangers and stick it to the side, or just run it on the floor down one side. Run it in a conduit and lay on the floor down one side. All sorts of possibilities. Go get some good auto fuel line. |

Going in a 1852 Lowe . I got a box of type a1 marine fuel line. I was thinking Of running it under the floor under the bracing but wasn’t sure if it might get worn through from something with all the vibrations from the motor. Maybe I’ll put it in some conduit under the floor just for peace of mind Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I run mine under the gunnel of my skiff, Its out the way and doesn't hangup. under the floor is proble the way to go. if you have some 1/4'' stainless tubing, it works well. |

Ran mine yesterday n the grey electrical conduit so it would have a little more flex. Made some “J” hooks and bolted under the gunnel. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

However you decide to do it, make sure you run it through some conduit or PVC. This will make change out and inspection much easier for the future. It also does a nice job of protecting it. |

Lots of boats have fuel tanks in the front. I wouldn’t worry. I also wouldn’t screw around with a low psi electric pump if anybody suggests that to you. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
