Changed oil tank bracket and fuel separator to stainless....

after 14 years it had enough.......
also changed all 3/8 fuel hose from the tank to the primer bulb..... (hose was in very good shape though from what i could see)
Luckily Parker used all stainless harware from the factory so everything came out easily....

where did you get the stainless water separator bracket from?

Yamaha sells the more expensive stainless version

Just a FYI:

Don't see any pix's of it.

The primer ball goes between the tank and the filter...... Not between the filter and the motor.

This helps fill the filter fast when a fuel filter is being changed.

A ON/OFF valve should be at the inlet of the filter mount.... or before the filter. Thats so it does not siphon when doing a filter change.

Date you filters with a Sharpie....Change them once a year.....Not in hours. Time will rust a filter.
