Hey guys, gals, I just bought a 1970's chrysler 55 hp outboard, I'm new to boats so I'm not that knowledgeable yet on outboards, after I picked up the 2 motors, one running, one for spare parts, I stopped at a gas station nearby where I picked it up and when I came back out the gas tank and gas lines were gone. Called it in to the police but they pretty much told me they weren't going to bother with it. So I need to get a new tank and lines. My 2 questions are, 1) what size tank would you recommend for this motor? It's going on a 15 foot starcraft Jet, aluminum hull, and 2) what size fuel line goes on the fuel pump to exit the motor? I want to run the line out then put a connector on it so I can change the ball pump part of need be, when they stole the tank it looks like they just yanked on the line and pulled it straight off the pump, any help would be appreciated!
