I have a 4HP/4 stroke 2003 Yamaha outboard for my dingy. I have been using the internal tank, but due to this terrible ethanol gas, I now turn off the fuel and run the gas out on every day of use so no gas is in the carburator. (at the end of the weekend, I drain the bowl too!). It takes me about 20 pulls to get gas back to the carburator after I do this.
I have been using a 1 gallon container and just filling the internal tank. I am considereing getting a small (3-3.5 gallon) external tank with siphon bulb so I can pressurize with the siphon and avoid the 20 pulls!
Do the newest EPA mandated tanks and hoses fit the old 2003 fittings on the motor or will I have to change out the motor fitting to match the new tanks?
