I ordered the universal gas line and primer ball that bcb sells and I ask the guy in parts before I ordered if it would be the right one for my yammie 150 that i have on my 1991 p2 and he says yes . Well I receive it and it is a 3/8 bulb and line which is way bigger than the one on the boat I dont know if my line is 1/4 or 5/16 but it is way smaller in dia. So I call parts and they say that is all they sell and it will work, does that sound right?thnxmark

Yes, though you may have to join it with a different connector. You will get better fuel flow.

No problem as the carburetor will not allow more than It needs. you just have no restrictions.

Yes, they should be on most BCB models. Some for Mercs and Yamaha had 5/16″.

Again until you try and fit it there is no way of verifying that. Any major automotive store will have brass hose barbs to complete the install if you get part way and need a piece.
