Correct wire for in-tank fuel pump

[Deptford Draylons]

I need to make another wire for the in-tank fuel pump. I don't seem to be able to readily find wire for the job, as my understanding is the insulation on it needs to be suitable for being submerged in a tank ?
Thanks

Automotive cables are typically insulated with PVC. PVC is petrol tolerant (you can get fuel pipes and tanks made from it). As long as you aren't using vintage rubber coated cable or anything wierd like that it's pretty likely that any normal automotive cable you get will be petrol tolerant.

(Note that insulating tape, heatshrink sleeving etc are typically not petrol tolerant so you need to pay attention to anything else you're using in your installation.)
