Default needed small hose for my fuel setup??

I was not sure where to post this but I am looking for a 90 degree "boot" with approximately 1/2 diameter ends. This needs to be fuel resistant. I am currently using Rubber but it seems to be getting eaten up by the fuel. This is for my conversion.
Thanks
Dave

Question ???

I think the word "boot" is throwing us off, in relation to a fuel sytem. Could you please explain your situation/needs a little more? We'd like to help you, but can't qiute grasp what your talking about.

There are specific rubber hose types for fuel including high pressure fuel injection hose. Ask at a good auto parts store, they should hav what you need.

Sorry guys this was confusing (even after I reread it)
This actually looks like the end or "boot" on an older spark plug wire the one with the 90 degree bend. it is for my vent tube that goes from the top of the tank to the filler neck
Now that I think about it I bet a hose will work fine it is not high pressure it just has fuel running to it when I refuel. I used a steel tube with this end on it since it went thru a cut portion of my bed.
I will rethink and get just some fuel line and try that.
Thanks
Dave
