That was my thought as well. I found a spot on the hose that does say "submersible" on it but not sure of its quality. Definitley a pretty tight bend for the line.

Your fuel pump install kit uses a metal u pipe to remedy this tight bend correct? Plan on ordering one from you tonight.

If it said submersible, it was probably the right stuff them. I only know of one manufacturer who constructs it and prints it on the hose. Strange to see it fail! Perhaps it was compromised or defective or perhaps the tight bend?

Yes we use a metal U-Pipe to accomplish the 180 degrees, with 2 short lengths of submersible hose on either end.

Sounds good! I just ordered your install kit through Z1 since they're relatively close to me. Should arrive tomorrow! Thanks for the help!

Don't want to derail you from supporting one of the really good vendors on here... but I'd imagine any good shop could fab up a U shaped hardline for you in a matter of minutes...

Just as an aside, my TT kit also came with a U-shaped hardline... I'd imagine most of these systems come with it for a reason... it would be a lot easier to just loop a hose. Just thinking out loud =)

That reason would be, because they either buy them from me (most)... or in the case of your TT kit, they just copy my parts that they like haha

BUT you'd be surprised how many shops cant make a proper bubble flare on that tube! We machined a custom die for that.
