I need to remove the fuel tank on an 1984 Ram 2500 4x4. I am going to replace the sending unit. What I need to know is what each of the three different hose sizes are for? I also need to know where these hoses connect in the engine compartment? The previous owner has two lines disconnected and only the supply line connected (he replaced the mechanical pump with an electric pump)

Hoses to the fuel tank include the fuel fill (large rubber hose) and overflow/vent (smaller rubber hose). There should be a fuel supply from the pump and possibly a fuel return from the pressure regulator.
