I have this engine and Im looking for the correst motor side fuel fitting. It is the push on type like an airline and the engione serial number is:

217.58622.0

Anyone have an idea where to source one?

Thanks!

I believe that's the same fitting Chrysler used. Try searching the big online auction site for something like "chrysler outboard fuel connector"

My info shows the same fitting works on: Chrysler, Eska, Sears and Suzuki. Be sure to verify the ID of your fuel hoses since some fittings are for 1/4in. hose and some are for 3/8in. hose. You probably need to change all fuel hoses for the newer-style ethanol-resistant hoses. Good luck!

Thank you guys!

Found it on Amazon for $7.

Next question is about the tank.


does this motor require a pressure tank?

I only ask as Im not seeing a fuel pump on or near the carb.

 

[Willyclay]

Never had my hands on one of those old beauties but cannot imagine that a single-line system is anything other than vacuum operated. Should be a fuel pump somewhere on the motor.

The fuel pump is built into the carb on that one. It is the rectangular plate on the side of the carb where the fuel line goes in.

Read this thread, I'm pretty sure your motor is very similar to the WIzard
