Re: Oil injection bulb

The bulb for the oil line is a different part number from the one on the fuel line. Can't say why that is unless it's simply a smaller diameter hose connection.

The oil line bulb is 175985 and has been superceded to 5008620. That bulb is for the special 1/4" yellow-stripe oil line hose.

Boobie, The factory shows your 174157 as an oil primer bulb. It shows that part as NLA, and does not show any supercession chain. Seems somewhat odd...Usually these bulbs get superceded due to compliance with new gov't fuel regs, so they quickly show a supercession..but not in this case.
