morning that the bulb on my fuel line was pretty stiff, think I will replace the line. What you guys suggest, what I looked at saturday evening at Gander Mt was the ones where you had to cut the ends off of you old line and use them. Is that something that would be ok to do ? Or should I consider buying the complete setup up ? I want to change it too because of ethanol and I know the same line has been on the boat for at least 3 yrs that I have owned the boat.
Just go to where they sell boats and buy you a new ethanol resistant bulb and also some ethanol resistant fuel line and replace
:hesaid
What Sat said that "G" said!!!
THE OLD SAYING "PAY ME NOW OR PAY ME LATER" APPLIES HERE ! WENT THE WALMART WAY AND ENDED UP SPENDING A TRIP TO THE SHOP . NOT FOR THE QUALITY OF THE PRODUCT PER SAY , JUST HOW IT WAS PUT TOGATHER . SEEMED FINE BUT WAS SEEPING AIR BY THE CONNECTORS AT THE BULB . COST ME 70 DOLLARS AT THE SHOP AND 20 SOMETHING AT WALMART . COULD HAVE BOUGHT A FACTORY ONE AT THE TIME AND ATE AT" CRACKER BARREL" FOR LUNCH !:twocents THEY PUT TWO PLASTIC ZIP TIES ON AND PULLED TIGHT . AFTER MESSING WITH IT FOR A WEEK ,AND TRYING EVERYTHING FROM CAPS TO SPARKPLUGS BEFORE TAKING TO SHOP I GLADLY BUY THE BEST NOW !:yikes
The fuel lines and bulbs at wally world are junk

you are spot on but since I thought they only sell one brand , I did not blast them to bad (might be a sponsor someday )but you gave them a much higher rating than deserved .:hesaidQuote:

#8M0061875,is the number for the mercury ethanol approved primer bulb
Buy Silverado line. It's braided on the inside and stays flexible. Any good ethanol resistant bulb will work with a couple of SS hose clamps---NOT zip ties.
Just trade one off your other boats
Exactly!!!! I never had any luck at all with them.Quote:
