Questions & Answers

Is it possible for these pieces to mate by ?

Working on my 1976 Mercury outboard. The two pieces will fit To connect the fuel supply line, I used a barbed fitting.

There is a 7 in my hand I had about one Mercury outboard, but the size was too large. What would be a good replacement?

As well, mine was too big at 1/4 inch, and we needed 1/8 inch piping

Can you tell me which size of hose this is ?

The third eighth and the eighth The 5/16 should be softened up and allowed to expand if it is too tight. Boil some water and dip the hose end into it to soften it up.

Do both fittings need to be replaced?

of the joint fits into the bottom piece of the joint.

INVESTIGATIONS MADE WITH FALSE INFORMATION

3/5

I think you're being falsely advertised! The only fitting you get is a female one. After returning to the store twice, I did not get the male fitting in the photo this time.

I recommend replacing the original OMC with this one since it is scheduled to become obsolete soon

Getting your Marine Repair done can be confusing for both owners and professionals!.

It was disappointing to find that the fitting was not metal, and the 90* angle was I was disappointed to find that it was plastic, not metal, and the 90° fitting was also inappropriate, it should have been a 45° fitting so that the fuel line would not hit the motor mount clamps when the motor was rotated

3/5

Especially when it comes to the fit, it could be better. It was difficult for me, too, to engage it with the motor fitting, but a little Vaseline on the mating ends made it much easier. The secret ingredient for smart mechanics is Vaseline.

It's plastic instead of cast metal, but it works well

3/5

It is a decent product, it does not leak but because it is made of nylon, it is a little bit heavy- A plastic material. It is definitely a bargain to get both ends for under $15. Not sure how long they will last. Mercury part for just the male end costs almost $60 as original equipment.

5/5

We fixed the leaky old fitting for a very low price. In my local retail store, they wanted 14 for the female side only (not too terrible), but I believe there was aluminum present. Although I did need to purchase an adapter and barb fitting for 5/16 inch hose, it worked fine.

I don't envision it lasting very long, but I am open to it

3/5

This is OK, but it is plastic, and I can't imagine that it will last for I had to use my old 90 and the spring from it to adapt it to my 1983 Mercury 25 HP, as it didn't come with the correct 90 on the engine side.
