Re: 1970 Yamaha Mariner 8 high speed issue

That leak may or may not be an issue, depending on where, exactly, it screws in. I would of course, fix that leak for safety reasons, but not until I took the whole stand pipe out and looked at it. If it just leaks around the seal with the tank itself, you’re right….it would be the same as a tank vent. If it leaks where the connector screws into the pick up tube, that’s a whole different story.

Long live American manufacturing!
