New tanks are available for $130.00.  I'd spend the extra & get a new one!

Subject: Tell me about the fuel sending unit


Hey guys,

I'm getting near to removing my gas tank for cleanig
and upgrades. It'll be about $75-$85 to get it
cleaned/tested, inside coated and a drain plug
installed. 

What I'd like to know is if I need to replace the fuel
pick-up and sending unit to convert to 3/8" line?
Someone told me they just adapted to 3/8" from the
5/16" with a rubber hose. There is a rubber hose off
the tank anyway. How about a fuel filter there with a
5/16" in and 3/8" out? Will a fuel filter cause
problems right off the tank? Will the fluid dynamics
of this size difference cause any bad problems? It's
working with the 5/16" now but maybe that's part of my
top end laziness. I'll leave it alone if it becomes
too big a can of worms.

Shoot me some ideas and part numbers/sources if you
have any suggestions/answers.

Thanks,
