I am replacing all the smaller carb fuel lines at the "T"s for the carbs and primer solenoid. Photo attached.
After unsuccessfully trying 3/16" fuel line from the local auto parts store where all the connections leaked fuel when priming (I know, I am dumb), I realized it had to be a smaller hose, assuming 5/32".
Here is where I am running into some problems:
1. Most parts catalog don't list the part # for the fuel line pieces (epc.brp.com is down at the moment)
2. After digging, it looks like it had the following part number history: 0319733 replaced by 0327228 replaced by 0772571
3. OK cool, I can now find 0772571 by the foot, but every listing online I find says the following:
5/32 in. Recirculation Hose
Not for use as fuel line
Non-EPA compliant
Not for use as fuel line? Non-EPA compliant? What the...?
Is this the part that I need or am I missing something?
FYI, none of my auto parts stores has 5/32" fuel line (O'Reilly's, AutoZone, Pep Boys). Haven't tried Napa or Hose Pros yet.
Thanks,
Chris
