Seriously though, you've already said what is wrong with your car. And it's not the fuel line.

I'm terribly sorry that you think extending the fuel line will cause the engine to burn more fuel. Once I put two garden hoses together to water the lawn and soon there were fish gasping for air and flopping around at the bottom of the reservoir.
