Universal 301299 fuel return line

Does anyone know what size hose this is? I wanted to take a spare as I am going to the Bahamas for several months and don't want to take it off. I can order it but not in time before I leave. It looks smaller then 3/16.

Thanks,
Mark

The Universal manuals are not clear on the size of the hose. The part # includes hose and clamps at each end.

Since the total length of each of these is less than a foot (!!!) why not buy a foot or two of various hose sizes "in the vicinity" of 3/16 and smaller. You could afford to throw the unused pieces away. You should also think carefully about those end clips because standard even tiny hose clamps are gonna be a beast to work with in those locations which is why they use clamps to begin with.

Thanks, you are exactly right, that is what I will do.
