fuel line size?
« on: February 15, 2019, 06:12:02 PM »

The fuel supply line is 5/16, but the vapor recovery line coming from on top of the tank is 1/4".

Thanks, I  didn't realize the vapor line was smaller. Still haven't dropped tank yet. Have gotten carried away working on engine maintenance. The tank should be dropped this week.
