Post subject:  Gas line hook-up

I bought a used Mudbuddy last year and need to replace the fuel lines. It's a Kawasaki 29 HP longtail. What's the best way to connect the gas lines to the tank? I looked at the local boat stores and they only had connectors for outboards. Need the fuel line and vent connection. Unfortunately, I was unable to use the motor or the new boat I bought it for after breaking my leg just two days after the purchase :evil: NO hockey leading up to or during the hunting season this year!!!!!! Now it's time to get things ready before the season starts next month.
Thanks in advance for the help!!

Any quick connect works as long as you buy the male and female of that brand. I think mine are Johnson/evinrude connections.

Most don't like the quick connects and just hook the fuel line into a open brass connection.




This is the connection I use



I will say that the little rubber O ring in the above fuel line connection has a tendency to dry rot every few years. I carry a couple extras in my boat.

What do you do about the return line to the tank from the fuel pressure regulator?
Is there a dual line connector for the tank that will have both the supply and return?
Or do I need two connection fittings on the tank?
