I am looking for a quick release fitting that will hook to the factory line at the tank and let me run a -8 AN hose forward. What are my options?

Russell makes a 3/8" quick connect to -6 male but there is no -8 fitting you need to use an adapter.

Yes it is. Call Summit and have them special order it. They will tell you 4 weeks but I know for a fact that they have 1 15118 and 2 of the 15117.

Sorry to bump this up after a few weeks, but I was wondering the same thing. What is the point of running a -8an line if the plastic tube feeding it is 3/8"?

One would think an -8an bulkhead fitting would be the way to go, but it isn't really an option with the plastic sending unit assembly.

The fitting on the sender is fine with the pressures but it is good to step it up to larger line for the added volume.
