Think a grease gun hose will hold up in this kind of service? I was
thinking of having a hydraulic shop make a hose for me.
This is pretty much the scheme I plan to use on my diesel. I'm not
comfortable letting my gauge sender hang off the engine only supported by
the tee, it's just too heavy and I'm afraid it'll snap off the first time
I hit a really big pothole.
