sender to hard line on top of tank

I'm guessing these are for the top of the tank. Can anyone confirm before I order?
I have a gas smell in the trunk when I open the deck lid. Thinking the originals have done what they can and need replaced.

TIA

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

or it could be a rust hole in the tank, leaking sender o-ring, or something equally fun...but, I would guess those lines first.

Apparently the have a $15 set and a preformed set for $25. Is it worth the extra $10 to get the preformed ones?

There's an indention on the top of the tank that will show the routing of the hoses.  A few seconds and some zip ties can 'train' them to lay correctly. (giggity)

Why not just buy a foot of plain ole FI fuel hose in the three sizes and be done with it?  You don't need SAE30R10 for the outside of the tank.

I guess I figure by the time I drive out and buy it I will be ahead just ordering it, and supporting a place with good service and products. Then I will only have to drop the tank once and hopefully fix the prob(if there is one). I'm thinking maybe the feed line has something wrong with it as my o2 drops at wot. Might have a prob with the pressure line or something. It is a fairly new dw200 pump. Maybe I need the dw300 as others are using.

That might be the return line. I don't think it sees much pressure.

When did the nos4gn start charging so much for shipping? It was like $19.75 to ship. Seems like a lot. I guess I'm just used to the free shipping on my eBay orders.

I'll make a note of the sizes so no one else needs to get the shipping rape.

Wow. That is steep for something that could be mailed First Class. Or at least Flat Rate.
