Kind of weird the guy at the Chevy dealership I was trying to order my fuel hose thru said the hose only does 50 psi. What sense would it make for the pump to push more than the hose can handle or was he just wrong?

why would you buy fuel hose from a stealership anyway?

50psi? maybe after the regulator but not sure I was todl by a tech that a good fuel pump puts out 62+ psi and that the blazer had to have 56+ to start perfect and run!! So i don't know when 50psi came from!!

Nobody in the Las Vegas makes this hose. I have to locate the plastic ends before anyone will make the hose. It's the one where the plastic clips hold the lines onto the fuel pump.
