You need the clear plastic hose made for FUEL. Not the stuff from a hardware store. A local snowmobile or atv shop should have it on the shelf http://www.ebay.com/itm/5FT-TYGON-1-4-I-D-...tem33819a799alf. Ebay of course.

More common are the yellow fuel lines, made specific for fuel immersion. The clear line is like for a tank to a carb, and will not last so long when submerged.
But whatever you use, be sure to hold the (dirtbike?) tank vertical and give the line assembly a shake after every turn of the tank fitting, or you will risk
hanging it up and corkscrewing the new line closed.

X2 Especially now with Ethanol in gas. Clear plastic line is only good for a fish aquarium.
