I might have asked this question before a while back but not sure. Can I run rubber fuel hose for my 1999 Tahoe, the pressure isnt too high is it??

Yes but it has to be fuel injection type rubber hose which is rated at 100 PSI.

The problem isn't with running rubber hoses. It's the way the hoses are probally going to be connected..most likey a by hose clamp.
Not a good idea IMHO. The fuel lines are steel with short sections of rubber hoses CRIMPED on to them for a reason (high pressure 60 psi).
This is one of those areas that I would recommend doing it right or don't do it at all.
