Hello everyone)

There is one moment in the car after the swap that has caused regular problems for more than a year) and now I hope this problem is solved!

The thing is, by default, the brand comes with an external pump. But it's noisy. And a good one actually costs much more than a good submerged one. So quite some time ago, when I started the swap, I decided to install a submerged one. On a hose.

And now for the third time I'm taking off the tank because the car won't start, there's simply no fuel. And again, the problem is in the hose

The pump itself presses at 8kg. Plus this entire system is always in gasoline. And regular hoses from the store become soft and just burst. By the way, every time the car stalled exclusively when releasing the gas.

What to do, I decided to buy the best and most expensive piece of hose that I could find. I turned to a hydraulic repair service. They can crimp any fitting there, including for fuel. They gave me the best hose at 25kg, gasoline resistant. But it's quite hard. And then another problem appeared: the diameter of the pump connector and on the tank are different, 1.5 mm.

I decided to buy an adapter 'tree' for the size of the pump and weld it with argon. Here is what I got

Hopefully no more need to go inside there, and this issue will be closed) as you can see, the pump takes maximum from the bottom, but it still needs to be in gasoline for cooling)
