    Why not just use 5/16" brake line, the line doesn't care if its brake fluid or fuel. You keep talking about how you're "terrible" at making wiring, you don't get any better at it by buying premade stuff. There isn't much wiring on a tractor, build it yourself.

    The difference in the pumps is that the diesel engine spins backwards compared to the gas. I’m not sure which is which, but I believe the diesel spins clockwise and gas is counter clockwise, or vice versa. So tachs are all diesel/gas specific too.
