    Default What fuel line


    I have a Johnson j150stlesb and I am needing to replace the fuel line. All I can find is I need a 3/8 hose with bulb. My question is, will any 3/8 bulb work. It is there a certain brand that is best to use.

    I found that the best bulb is a factory Mercury bulb. Tried several after market bulbs and none were any good. Use ethanol resistant line from NAPA or CarQuest.

    I agree about using OMC bulbs. As far as fuel line I don't think anyone makes line that isn't safe to use with ethanol.

    Marpac Premier has the best fuel line and primer bulbs that I have found in aftermarket. Mercury (quicksilver) fuel line is junk. The best OEM lines are Yamaha, which are probably the best on the market. IMHO
    I'd rather be fishing.
