Done this with my dad's Lada. Fuel hose ruptured (rusted through?) in the middle of nowhere and I installed a hose directly from engine inlet (the car had fuel pump mounted on the side of engine powered by crankshaft) running through the firewall right to the small fuel container sitting just on the floor under my legs. It worked and got me home. Please never ever try to repeat it.
