Hello, i was wondering if anyone knew any way to make a 2 line pressure tank able to connect directly to a fuel line without the connector. I dont have a connector and they cost like $80 for 1. The fuel tank has 3 barbs on it. Any help would be appreciated.

That is not a pressure tank standard OMC fitting works on that get the single line fitting. That is a single line tank. The bottom barb is a guide for the fitting when you put it on. The barb with he point and the groove is only for locking the fitting on with the silver clip on the fitting. The other one with the holes in it is the fuel barb.

If you actually do have a pressure tank, but you posted the wrong picture, the double hose connects direct to the tank, you don't need a fitting there. There is a fitting at the motor, and if anyone is charging 80 bucks for it, they are nuts! PM me if you need one.

The generic single line connector, if that is your tank in the pic, are not very costly either.

Ok. I think i posted a pic of the wrong tank. The motor I bought didn't come with a tank and all i knew was that it was a pressure tank. I plugged that into ebay and thats what came up. I think i may have found an actual pressure tank where the fuel line goes directly onto the fuel tank. Thanks for the information (and saving me from buying the wrong tank).

Here is a picture of a pressure tank I just restored, to show the difference.
