Re: Grey gas line problem

[DAN ANDERSON]

My opinion. No will fit parts (after market – Sierra, Attwood, Sea-Sense (Walmart) just to name a few.) That includes the fuel line(of any color), primer bulb or connectors. They are made out of inferior products. That being said the OEM stuff is sky high (pre made). I make my own hose assemblies. That way they are the length I want them. I use Gates hose (black, reinforced, ethanol resistant.) I use BRP primer bulbs and connectors. I would assume Mercury stuff is of good quality, but haven’t used them.
I keep the primer bulb and as much of the hose out of sun exposure as possible. Other than that just plan to change the hose out every few years if stored in the sun & using ethanol fuel.
