I am currently building a boat and I have installed a below deck fuel tank. The tank was originally used for diesel, so it has a standard 5/8" vent fitting and a 3/8" return line fitting. My problem is that the 5/8" fitting is vertical and wont clear under the deck with a hose installed. The 3/8" fitting clears easily. I know the 5/8" vent is standard, but if I can safely go with 3/8" it will solve a major issue. The tank is 36 gallon and the motor is a Johnson 90 HP outboard.
Advice would be appreciated.
