Hi,

I searched online now for nearly an hour and couldn't really find something. Probably not using the right word. I have a new belly tank with the fuel fill inlet ( 1 1/2" ) facing to the side of the boat, but my fuel fill line is coming from the back and its too stiff to bend. I need some fuel proof 90deg adapter that fits on the tank inlet on one side and takes the fuel hose on the other side.

All I find are PVC or silicone fittings but they are not fuel proof. I guess worst case I could use a 1 1/2" 90 deg brass elbow that's barbed on both ends and cut the fuel hose in pieces. But I can't believe I'm the only one with that problem.

The tank looks like this and sits in the belly between the stringers. I have no idea why they decided to face the fuel fill inlet to the side. I assume the majority of boats has their stringers running along the belly and there is barely any space.

Oh, and there was no fuel related forum but I have an OMC Engine + Outdrive :D
