Fuel Filler tube and vent line.

Starcraft C-Star 17, 3.0/Mercruiser.

Hi everybody. We took the boat out for the first time this year, (dang weather)

I took it to the gas station to fill it up. Got home to warm it up etc, jumped in and was looking for the tow handle under the rear seat and found it pretty wet from gas, yuck

No gas in the bilge, but found a little puddle under the filler tube where it comes down and turns 90 degrees to route to the tank.

Looks like its cracked.

Does anyone know where to find a new one, i have search on this site and cant find one.

Its pretty heavy duty looking, really thick rubber line. Can i just buy some rubber hose, or is it special?

Re: Fuel Filler tube and vent line.

All fuel lines are special. Take yours off, measure it (length and inside diameter), and replace it with fuel line. Should be an easy fix, although getting it out and back in may be a headache depending upon your boat's design.

Your local boat/marine dealer should carry it.
