Thought I should ask this outside of my other post. Been looking for what size and type of hose to use on the oil injection side of the motor. I can find part numbers for each piece but it does not tell me what the ID of the hose is. Would like to pick like 4 ft of this stuff up from a local auto parts store. Can I use vacuum hose or clear fuel hose?

Never mind I was thinking this thing had direct oil injection but it just mixes with the fuel prior to the fuel pump.

If the amount of hose needed is small, might be best to buy locally from nearby boat service to you to get marine rated fuel hose if they are close enough in driving distance.

If it's a specially formed bend hose or you need a lot of it, then it's probably best to buy it online and make one big single order with all parts needed.

OP, for your safety and because of most locations boating laws, buy marine rated hose for the application.
