Got a 1957 Evenrude 10 HP out board motor I just rebuilt.
It has the duel gasline from the tank to the motor(one air and one gas line)
Every thing wooks great but the connector from the hose to the motor has a leak, The small O rings looks like they are cracked. Do I need to replace the connector or can the o-rings be replaced if so how?
This it the orriginal metal connector and I would like to find a way to keep it and not go to a plastic one.

Be sure to use the OEM parts. The aftermarket ones don't fit correctly.

Sieara makes them for the dual lines, I had the part number but I can't find it, I think I found them at www.maxrules.com.

Stay away from the Sierra ones they are just a tad off in size. They are still available at Laings or a J/E dealer #301824. Rick

Made the tools as described above tryed severial times but I think the old o-ring is too hard to get a grip on with the hook tool, It keeps bending thr steel hook back streight.
