I’m looking for a small (1 to 3 gallon) portable fuel tank to go in my dinghy to work with a 3.3 mercury outboard. The engine has a small integrated tank, but it has a couple of pinhole leaks and I’m having difficulty with the shutoff valve letting enough fuel into the carb, it can’t prime and there is no way to manually prime it.
I’m thinking it would be easier just to bypass that tank and go with a portable one with a primer bulb, and just hook it up to the fuel inlet on the carb. I could reduce the fuel line size with an adapter if necessary.
Anyone got an extra one in their shop or garage they don’t mind picking up a little extra cash for?
