Return line replacement hose

[Bob Ellithorpe]

Went to NAPA today and purchased some "serious" replacement hose for the return line.

Shields Fire - ACOL USGC Type A1 SAE J1527/ISO 7840 5/16 I. D.

This hose is approx. 3/4 " O. D. With Approx. a 3/16 wall thickness

Ask for Diesel/Marine rated hose !!

This isn't the type hose I used the first time and I'm back into a hard start situation again, so I'll see if this cures the problem. If not at least I'll know I have some good hose that should last a long time. We'll see !!

Cost = $2. 99 per ft.

That is the exact same hose I got to replace mine. NAPA here does not carry diesel hose, so I got it at West Marine Supply and they were only $2. 49 a foot. I got 2 ft. , but only needed 16. 5 inches. I also got 2 ft. of the 3/8 hose and needed less than a foot.
