5/32 omc fuel line source

[siggyrocks]

I'm replacing all of the fuel lines on my '93 28spl. For the life of me I can't find 5/32 fuel line. My local Omc dealer was stumped. Who sells it online?

What? Your dealer can't provide parts for a 1993??

Anyhow, are you sure they aren't 3/16"?

You could probably substitute a 3/16" line instead... (3/16=6/32") I don't think i've ever heard of 5/32" fuel line... although i could be wrong. Is the size stamped/printed on? if you simply took a measurement with a micrometer, don't forget to account for hose expansion/shrinkage. I've noticed some fuel lines expand, while others seem to shrink.....just my $0.02 though.

it is for the the primer hose.

HOSE, Fuel tee to primer, 3 in. (76mm). Cut to Length from 327228 - 5/32 in. I.D., 25 ft. (7,6m) Roll

HOSE, Primer tee to carb., 8 in. (203mm). Cut to Length from 327229 - 0.0575 in. I.D., 25 ft. (7,6m) Roll

you must have a sorry dealer. i have no problems buying it by the foot.

I too have been spending hours trying to find 5/32 for my 1988 Mercury and cannot find it anywhere. Mercury was no help, local marine shops no help...I see that reference is made to OMC. Is there any reason that would not be universal. Do you see any reason not to use on my Mercury? I tried 3/16 and it easily slips from the fuel connection on carburetors.
