need a formed fuel line for 525sc
I just replaced the fuel pump and pump slip ring assembly on my 1995 525sc
of course I cross threaded the compression fitting at the fuel pump and need a new formed fuel line from the pump to the dual feed at the carb
32-817130
mercruiser parts ( BAM Marine) says this is no longer available
any advice other than making a new one
any place to look
any luck re-tapping these fittings??????
not sure if I like that idea

Replace it with some stainless braided line maybe???
Then again go and get a straight line from parts store, along with a small tube bender and double flare kit and make a new one. It might seem hard to do, but it really isn't.

I'm guessing that for half the price of what Merc would charge, you could buy a double flare kit, tubing and a bender.
If I remember correctly, Merc uses a female thread on one end that's kind of hard to find, so save that and reuse it.
