Well the tank says it's quicksilver. So I amguessing it is a Mercury fitting.

Did that tank come with an engine that you know of?
If yes, what engine serial number and HP size?
What size gas tank is it?

I believe your tank is like this one of part number 1265-859065A3, https://www.2040-parts.com/mercury-quicksilver-6-6-gal-marine-boat-fuel-gas-tank-w-gauge-i1133639/

Which is kind of leading to item number 10 but not 100% sure on that, https://www.mercruiserparts.com/bam/subassembly/32050/11844/58

All in which could be hiding somewhere in here, https://www.mercruiserparts.com/fuel-oil-tanks-lines-filter-kits-and-c-1

Or in here under where used, https://www.mercruiserparts.com/859065a3-tank-fuel-6-6-gal

But maybe knowing what engine might help some.

That’s is the same fitting on my gas tank, thank you. I purchased a 14’ boat and it came with it. But no motor.

Thanks again.

There's a bewildering variety of fuel fittings. Wanna get real confused? Shop for one on Amazon. Sellers don't know what they've got... Buyers don't know what they need. So they don't fit, they leak, they get bad reviews. It's all just so unnecessary :poop:

Didn't Mercury change engine-end fittings in 1999?
Plus I think Merc tank & engine ends are different, but look similar.

Yrs ago Merc used a couple of different sized sets of Connectors that were very good, then they switched to the problematic style similar to OMCs, which are always leaking Fuel, or sucking Air in.
