Ethanol resistant fuel line

[CED8ED]

Great site by the way. After reading many posts about what ethanol will do to old fuel line, I have decided to replace the fuel lines on all my motors. I own six OMC motors, years 1973-1988 and from 6 to 90hp. My question is what sizes of fuel line do I need to buy that should cover all these motors? Thanks in advance.

3/8" 1/4" 5/32" only found 5/32 at the Johnson dealer, do not try to use 1/4 on for 3/32 it will cause air leaks. you can verify sizes here, for each motor. primer line is 0.0575 in. I.D.

Replace each line with the same size. Better yet, determine the size of the fittings to ensure the correct size. If the current line for each works now, why fix it till it breaks?
