Author	Topic:   Fuel line size?
peteinsf	posted 05-22-2002 10:54 PM ET (US)      What in the I.D. size of fuel line that connects to the tank on a OR-25'? (I'd look but it's a 3 hour drive) The Raider-18' looks like it was installed with 5/16" ID tank hose... Pete

peteinsf	posted 05-23-2002 01:06 AM ET (US)          Thanks Jim, I started second guessing when I found the 5/16 in the raider... My original guess was that it would be 3/8-inch. The 200HP outboard manual shows a 3/8 line comming in to the motor. I was going to pick up a fuel filter but I didn't know what fittings to get.

peteinsf	posted 05-29-2002 05:50 AM ET (US)          Thanks Larry, I double checked, the raider has two 5/16 hoses connected. I suspect it's custom since the boats were factory rigged with two 70HP motors. Also the tank does not have a fuel gage only a cap...
