Rusty, that Gates 4219-0102 hose is Nitrile*, inside and out (see #1 scan below) and while Nitrile has an excellent compatibility rating with "straight diesel"*, and it did meet the "standards of it's day"*, times are changing, and not all of us have, or are going to have, the luxury of running...
Please, take a moment to re-read the post you're referring to...
I can surely see how it's handy to figure the guy with 5k+ likes must be right, and the newer guy must be wrong... but here's the thing... if the in-tank hose on someone else's truck goes south, because they followed You and...
At the time of this writing Gates does not produce a 1/2" ID hose that they recommend for in-tank/sumbersible use with today's fuels. (Gary, Gates Industrial Hose and Hydraulic representative, ph.303-744-5070). But, here's contact info with links to a supplier for 1/2" ID Fluoroelastomer hose...
Nothing written in this thread has warranted any threats or expletives. You are far more impressed with that crap than I am. I spent so many years as a Range Officer on firing lines that I tend to objectively call people out for their actions, like rusty's false #101 post. Never understood the...
I can surely see how it's handy to figure the guy with 5k+ likes must be right, and the newer guy must be wrong... but here's the thing... if the in-tank hose on someone else's truck goes south, because they followed You and Rusty's lead by installing a hose that isn't 30R10 submersible rated...
Just got off the phone with Gary, Gates Industrial Hose and Hydraulic representative, @ 303-744-5070. Gary stated that the hose in that listing (Gates Product ID #42196150, Part# 27342) while being J30R14T2 rated (not synonymous with J30R10), is not 30R10 rated, and absolutely not intended for...
Rusty, we've already established in post #115 that Gates makes many variants of 4219 Series hose, some are fuel submersible, some are not. By Gates' own admission, the 4219 variant that is 30R10/Submersible rated is not available in 1/2" ID. Now, you made a claim in post #101, on 3/22 at 00:45...
From the specs given, looks to me like that's EXACTLY the kind of thing we need! Just need to have one that'll do 1/2" ID (13mm) x 13"+ long (325mm) for my set up anyway.
Doing a search for convoluted fuel tubing/corrugated fuel tubing, seems like the 1/2" ID is still the sticking point... I...
Here's a link with good info and a source for hose compatible with today's diesel, biodiesel/blends, and anything else you'd likely run in your truck https://www.steelsoldiers.com/showth...Hose-For-Deuce
This is the kind of thing that can happen if a non-submersible type of fuel hose (like the one Rusty posted in his last link) is used for an in-tank application...

Hey Rusty, I haven't seen where Gates even lists 1/2" submersible currently on their own website. Please list a direct 1/2" Gates submersible fuel hose product link, or a link for 1/2" submersible fuel hose from any manufacturer for that matter, from a supplier that currently has the product in...
THE WIRING... Old thread I know, but I didn't want to add another thread to the mix, and sorry I didn't take pics along the way... Unless your existing wiring already has the twist-lock type pump connector, I really suggest that the pigtail from the new pump be soldered to your old power lead...
