1968 Evinrude 18 HP Fastwin fuel line

[outdoorsman37]

Hello! The fuel line from the connector outside of the cover and into the power head is kinked. Does anyone know if I am missing a part? The kink would impeded gas flow I am pretty sure. I might have it connected to the wrong hole and the wrong connector? Maybe the hose needs to be stiffer? Thanks!

Also, what is a shift locker? Sorry, don't know.

Thanks!

in my opinion the hose is too short, let it loop farther back under the cowl rather than that sharp turn.

you could also drill out the hole to give the hose some relief.
