I need to order a new fuel line but I can't tell the exact diameter I need. Anyone know for sure what a 1987 85 HP uses?

Probably 5/16
take a piece of it or something it goes on down to the local car parts store and have them cut you off a foot. should be about 2 bucks.

That's what I was thinking, but there are also some pre-made assemblies that are 3/8".

5/16 was the OEM standard, however, 3/8 will also work.
