Re: 1960 Evinrude 5.5 hp Fuel System

Chris, thanks for the reply. It’s been too long ago since I took it
apart, and it was such a rat’s nest with crud (mouse hotel)
that I didn’t realize the circuit is to the fuel pump before the
filter. Would it work going to the filter first so as not to plug
up the fuel pump?
Yes, the original pump had two barbs, inlet and outlet, and
impulse was via the port in back directly to the crankcase.

Prepare to be boarded!
