i fired up the boat ('86 Force 125) the other day and the primer bulb was all cracked...so I picked up one at the local marine place for 22.00 - I was thinking 5-10 bucks. Wow I thought that was high, and the lady explained about EPA regulation on new ones. Hate how the EPA does stupid stuff like that.
anyhow, I noticed my line is 1/4" but I put on a 5/16 bulb with a little coaxing.
Is 1/4 the factory size line ? - looked like a match at the tank but a little small at bulb and at the fuel pump.
and how old can a line be ? - it's looks fine but is the black version. The piece going from the bulb to the fuel pump is dated 2006. The line from the tank to the bulb says 2010. .
