Technical Specifications

Package Contents

• 1 x Fuel Line Assembly with Primer Bulb (Replaces Yamaha 6Y1-24306-55)
• 2 x Snap-on Connectors (pre-installed)

Installation Guide

1. Safety First: Work in a well-ventilated area away from open flames, sparks, or heat sources. Ensure the engine is off and cool.
2. Disconnect Battery: Disconnect the battery as a safety precaution.
3. Locate Old Fuel Line: Identify and access the existing fuel line connections at the engine and the fuel tank.
4. Remove Old Line: Carefully disconnect the old fuel line from both the engine and the tank. Have a rag ready to catch any minor fuel spillage.
5. Orient New Line: Take the new fuel line assembly and note the directional arrow on the primer bulb. This arrow must point in the direction of fuel flow (from the tank to the engine).
6. Connect to Tank: Attach the appropriate snap-on connector to the fuel tank outlet. Ensure it clicks into place securely.
7. Connect to Engine: Attach the other end of the fuel line to the engine's fuel inlet port. Ensure a secure, snug fit.
8. Prime the System: Squeeze the primer bulb repeatedly until it feels firm. This fills the fuel line and carburetor with fuel.
9. Inspect for Leaks: Visually inspect all connection points for any signs of fuel leakage. If you see or smell gas, do not attempt to start the engine. Rectify the leak first.
10. Test Engine: Reconnect the battery, start the engine, and let it run for a few minutes while continuing to check for any leaks.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this fuel line fits my engine?
A: This fuel line assembly is designed for most Yamaha outboards from 4 HP to 350 HP (both 2-stroke and 4-stroke models) that require a 5/16" (8mm) fuel connection. It is a direct aftermarket replacement for OEM part 6Y1-24306-55. Always verify the part number and connection size from your engine’s service manual or the existing part before ordering.

Q: What is the arrow on the primer bulb for?
A: The arrow indicates the correct direction of fuel flow. During installation, you must ensure the arrow points from the fuel tank towards the outboard motor for the fuel system to function properly.

Q: Is this assembly compatible with ethanol-blended fuels like E10?
A: Yes. The fuel line is constructed from a modern, low-permeation rubber material that is fully compatible with today's gasoline and ethanol-blended fuels, preventing it from degrading or becoming brittle over time.

Q: What are the signs that my old fuel line needs replacement?
A: Common signs of a failing fuel line include visible cracks, brittleness, a collapsed primer bulb that won't regain its shape, or the smell of fuel, which indicates a leak. Failure to prime the engine or stalling can also point to a fuel delivery issue.
