Author	Topic:   Source for fuel line and fittings?
billh1963	posted 03-05-2004 05:41 PM ET (US)         As you may have surmised by now I have no reasonably located source for marine odds/ends in my area. I want to mount my Racor fuel filter this weekend but need some fittings and marine grade fuel hose. Any ideas of where I should look for something that may hold up in the marine environment? I can buy a normal fuel hose from Wally World, I guess, and cut off the ends but what about fittings (threaded nipples) for the filter? Thanks!

If you don't need one of the stock attwood sets it would be cheaper and easier. Also the pre made sets are all made out ob type B fuel line, which is not coast guard aproved if you have to run it where it can't be seen. The stores I mentioned sell marine type A fuel line. Hale
