Revenge 25 WT Fuel Hoses

Postby morocco » Sun Aug 21, 2022 7:13 pm

Q1: What are the sizes of the fuel hoses on a 1987 Revenge 25 for the filler hose, the vent hose, and the engine feed hose?

I am out of town away from the boat and wanted to order them so they'd be there when I get back. I believe the filler hose is 1-1/2 inch.

Q2: are all the SAE J1527 USCG A1-15 feed line hoses 3/8-inch?

Q3: Is the vent 3/8-inch?

At the current price of USCG rated fuel hose, I strongly recommend you verify the sizes of the hoses on your boat. At $4 to $10 per foot you don't want to order the wrong size.

Typically a 25-foot hull would be powered by engines of at least 150-HP. An engine of that power would typically specify that the fuel feed hose must be no smaller than 3/8-inch inside diameter in order to not cause a restriction in the fuel flow.
