    I do need some guidance on replacing the o-rings in the fuel connector. I would like to fix it next but since I only have one pressure tank I kinda don’t want to spend the money for the tool. If I can’t fix it I could mail it to someone that has the tool. I need to know what type and size o-rings I need?? and maybe a brief how-to do it. Thanks in advance.

    Also does anyone know what that small hole is on the mid-section that is spitting out water? Is that a modification?

    Thanks,
    Joe

    You’ll love that tool. Here is a brief how-to do it that Frank still has up on his website: http://www.franksoutboardtools.com/fuel … xture.html

    As Richard says you’ll get a couple o-rings with it but here’s some info on those for future reference: OMC #301824 – don’t get the Sierra version, it looks like they’re still offering fat ones that don’t work well. McMaster Carr has them by the 100 bag and they work very well.

    If you’re asking about the hole in the picture it’s the upper water tube grommet tab/ear hole. Grommet is worn/dried out and water is getting past it.
