That makes sense, I struggle just messing with my filter for the holding tank... the only other way would be through the aft shower, but I think that would be harder

New 12’ fuel lines arrived yesterday, and I will be installing tomorrow. Quick question. It looks like I will need to unscrew the outer stainless mount, and feed/thread the new fuel line in that direction. By the looks of it, I can not reach the hose clamps from inside the engine compartment. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Correct, I agree with you. Would it be easier if I found an eight-year-old who knows how to use a screwdriver?? Haha. I have one at the house I’m sure I could bribe....

 

Please help y’all. I can not figure the Starboard side out. There is no access.. you can not remove the stainless mount from the outside.

 

May have to cut in 1 of these.

 

Just called Sea Ray. They sent me the notes to replace fuel lines.

 

I'm not familiar with the 380, but more often than not, those lines are attached to the fitting before the deck and hull are joined in assembly. May have to get creative with how to reach them and if you can't, the only way is adding a strategically placed access hatch like scoflaw pictured.

 

Are you kidding me???

 

Port side finished... I feel like I’ve been in a wrestling match with a contortionist, but I won!! Haha.

this was the old fuel line..

Haden, where is your boat? I am a mile from Ditto right now for about a week.

I’m located at the Riverwalk Marina in Decatur. I’m not sure if I will be at the boat tomorrow, but will definitely be at the boat Friday, Saturday, and Sunday.

Can you share where you got the fuel line and the part number or size? I will be looking at mine to see if it’s in the same condition next time I am at the boat

 

I think total cost to my door was $123.00. Seems like a small amount to pay to prevent a major disaster!!! Great company to deal with. Call them directly if you can. They shipped same day I placed order by UPS. I personally will be ordering more from them due to their customer service, and quick turnaround.

 

We would be most correct by saying this is fuel tank fill hose. There are lots of other fuel lines in the boat.
