need to run portable tanks til i can get the hull seperated to replace tank.<br />- which brand of tank would have the best draw diameter? <i.e. 5/16, 3/8><br /> book says min 5/16 for the 120/140 j/e. prefered 3/8.<br />but tempo & moeller<sp> only have the 1/4 draw.<br />would this still be ok if the rest of the fuel line was 3/8?

2K,<br /><br />No! I do not know what kind of engine you have, but if it's a Johnny/Rude V-4 or V-6, you absolutely need 3/8.<br /><br />You should be able to put a 3/8" ID fitting in the pick up.
