I have a fuel leak between the engine and where the fuel line hooks up. What is the standard size fuel hose and where is the best place around Saginaw to buy a new fuel connection? I want to get on the water this weekend.

It is best to remove the quick connector as they are a problem area. Just get a 3/8ths union and about a foot of 3/8ths fuel line, remove both parts of the quick connector reconnect to fuel pump.
