Postby Broncoguy73 » Thu Jan 02, 2014 1:16 pm

Is there any reason whey I cant run regular fuel line for my return line or do i have to run EFI rated?

Yes run regular hose pre high pressure pump and on the return line. That high pressure stuff is expensive!

Yes it is, that's why I ask. So I will run it from the tank to LP to accumulator then to the HP and also the return. Great will save a lot of money.

I think your entire supply line has to run in EFI line, but return lines don't have to. I'd have to go out and check mine to see if that is what I did, but if memory serves me, the standard line will collapse under the pressure of a HP pump.

I've been running low pressure carb fuel line from the tank to the LP pump, to the accumulator, to the HP pump for 2 years now with no problems.
