I need to put a flexable fuel line inside my tank for a pick up. But I can not find a fuel line that is fuel resistant inside and out. I have found a Gates hose that is SAE 30R10 rated which means it can be fully submirsed in fuel but can not find it in the length I need plus it is about $30 a foot. What else can I use that is readily available?

Check the parts fiche for 03-07 Skidoo Rev, it might not be quite long enough. The Yamaha Rx1 tanks had internal pick ups with hoses as well.

Any pictures? I would like to re-do my walboro pump so I can use the last 1.5 gallons of my stock apex tank!

nothing special. The tank is similar to the Impulse tank but the surge tank is built in instead of separate. so the pick up is just a fitting in the bottom and a hose is connected inside with a screen for the pick up.
