Default Need Help Identifying Fuel Pump Hose

have the pump out of my tank. I am having fuel pressure issues (no fuel pressure at the rail). After I pulled the pump out of the tank, I noticed one of the rubber hoses was connected to the top of the bucket (the inside hose shown below) but was not connected to anything else.




The other hose (the outside hose of the above pic) was connected to the return line as shown here.



Does the inner hose connect to anything? What is it for?

I can't see your photobucket photos because they block it here. If you can attach them or if someone can attach them and post them up I'll be more than happy to help. I've had my Fuel Pump out and all that apart quite a few times.

I posted them last night from my house. I can't see them here at work either I'll see if I can post them up at home or email them to you.

Here is the image of the two hoses connected to the bucket.

Here is the outside line shown attached to the return line from the rail. The other (inner hose) is not attached to anything.

I know the clear one is the send line, and the rubber one is the return line that fills the Bucket and cools the Pump.

That first pic I can barely see, is that what you were looking for?
