Fuel hookup for VRO? Female connector?

[csalle2]

Took this motor off a boat I bought, and sold the boat. I forgot to take the fuel connector off when I sold it. I bought a standard Evinrude/ Johnson female fuel hookup, but it doesn't fit. I have been searching everywhere, but can't find what I need. This is a VRO, so not sure if there is a specific connector. The VRO has been disconnected though. I just need something that fits. I can't read the serial number, nor do I know what year it is. Here are some pictures. Any help, or link to the connector I need would be greatly appreciated!!

The small connector was for the oil line and the big one is for the fuel line you hooked to for your built in tank. Cap off the small one and connect your fuel line to the big one.

Thanks! However this "standard" Evinrude female connector doesn't fit the large (or small) one. Any idea where I can get one that fits? Was it a special size because of the VRO?

No connectors that size. If you need the quick disconnect you could always get the mtr half and plumb it in.

Ohh!! That makes sense. I was thinking there was a special VRO quick connect that I accidentally let go with the boat. I guess it was just on there with a hose clamp. Thanks for all the help! Fingers crossed it starts with no issues!

My guess it is a 1990 engine. On a V-6 there should be NO fuel connectors as they do not flow enough gasoline to feed a big motor. Always use 3/8" I.D. fuel lines from the tank to the motor and a 3/8 primer bulb.
