94 k1500 fuel problems - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Ok here goes, I had a problem with the fuel pump in January. Changed the fuel pump and managed to knock the float arm loose from the sending unit. Remember it is January and I have no garage. BTW I live in WI. Two weeks ago decided to drop tank and reattach the float. That was successful, then pump acted up again last week. So I put another pump in it, now for the real problem. The fuel lines are leaking on the sending unit, I know I can't get them apart only leaks when ignition on. I am in need of sending unit and fairly rust free lines along the rails. I know the lines are the tought part.

You need to list cab and bed configuration. The lines are different for each one.

Sorry,
Extended cab and short box

I am going to drop the tank and see if I can flare a line and salvage anything, I still have to drive everyday.

I think it would be the same if not it would be made the same. How rusty are the lines and sending unit. I know I can't get the lines apart at the sending unit. Let me know please.

Last I looked they were in great shape. I will take a good look at the set up this weekend

If that don't work for you, try inlinetube.com I ordered my stainless brakelines from them for my 91' Ex Cab LB. They also have fuel & tranny lines...

Thanks for everyones help I broke down today and purchased a new sending unit, I am attempting to get the lines loose, I will come up with something to make it work. I am making a gas vapor or fog with the line as it is, it slowly collects on the frame and runs. I think serious safety concern.

Thanks

To ease the minds. I have fixed the truck, don't know how long the lines will last but they are not leaking at this time and the sending unit has been replaced. I might be interested in lines yet if they were reasonable. Preventative measure
