I have my gastank installed and see that the gas line hole is about 1/2 way up the side of the tank. Is there a tube that can be inserted in the hole that extends to the bottom of the tank?
Or perhaps the fuel line is extended thru the connection to the bottom of the tank.
As always I appreciate your support.

The line in the tank that you are talking about is called a "dip tube", and your gas tank should already have the dip tube in the tank since it was installed at the factory as part of the tank unit. The connection that you see on the outside of the tank is connected to the dip tube on the inside of the tank. laugh laugh laugh
