Most gauge kits use 1/8" poly tubing. You can buy the tubing and fittings from any hardware store. I don't like the tubing so I use 1/4" rubber hose. You can use either fuel hose, or a more specific hose like push-loc hose from Russel, Earl's. Aeroquip, etc. You can order it from Summit or Jegs, etc.
You can also order a full kit from Livorsi with the gauge and the tubing and fittings.

I use Pisco tubing, since we have them at work in various sizes. 1/8 is the sizeyou need.

The plastic tubing likes to kink pretty easily. If you use it, leave a couple extra feet coiled up, especially if you use teh block drain to feed it. The tubing can clog and it is sometimes easier to cut off a few inches than to try and unclog it.
