The motor on by boat looks to have a 1/4" fuel line. I want to upsize the tank which means going to something like a standard 3/8" outboard line. I assume that it won't pose a problem on this engine to run a larger fuel line? The run will not exceed 6' - just want to be sure before I start buying parts.

Thanks

Derek.-

never heard of a larger fuel line causing any problems, only getting too small and causing too much of a restriction so you should be good to go.

3/8 is a little large. Just put a 1/4 in fitting on the new tank and call it good
