What's the fitting circled in blue?

that fitting is one i circled in another thread asking if thats where i should run my mech fuel pump vent hose, i just robbed that picture from that thread to stick in here!:ernaehrung004:

as for the trim pump, man i thought for sure mine was only live when the key was on??? probably just my bad memory again........

just went thru this as well, both my pump and choke are running of a oil pressure switch and 30 amp relay that is tied to the ignition. it wont pump fuel until it reaches 15 psi or so, if you want i can post pics and make a half assed schematic for you. as far as the throttle linkage jegs sells the piece you need to use the big hole on the throttle arm for like 8 dollars, call them up and they can give you a part number so you can look it up and see it before you order it

Hey Dave!

I would love to see some pictures and a half-assed schematic. It would go perfectly with my half-assed boat! :D

Thanks!

I will get pics tomorrow and try to make a schematic that you can follow or if you would like pm me your email and phone number and we can talk about it that way, I do much better on the phone than trying to type things out, or draw pictures lol
