FYI the inlet/outlet is 3/8". Not universal "fit" but universal use for anything using a 3/8" hose. Not a bad price at all. Thanks.

One guy figured it out the other needs to be spoon fed. The ends are apparently threaded with some sort of o-ring to seal and the fittings weren't quite tight. I guess he's a typical Amazon user who doesn't know how to use arm muscles. Probably has strong smartphone thumbs though.

These are cool but 'they cause more fire than ex wives'

I've had them before and after a year or two they leak. Almost lost a car to one. Ill stick with the sealed metal/plastic ones.

While this is better than the cheapest china versions of this thing with the plastic fittings that are guaranteed to burn your vehicle up these are still very cheaply made. I would honestly steer clear having worked somewhere that sold a version of these, even though this version is arguably better.

Depends on the car and mileage. Many newer cars do not have a replaceable fuel filter and is in the gas tank.

I'd be concerned about something this small on an outboard unless it's low HP, the flow rate would concern me, particularly when it gets a bit clogged up. Double so if it's a 2 cycle outboard.

Dorman is a good budget automotive brand. Single barb fitting like this could be problematic if not done correctly, but I suppose that's true of any fuel connection.There are few applications where this might be needed.

I have one of these on my 72 Nova. I guess I'll buy one JIC.

These are good for diagnostic purposes, but I would never run one on my lawnmower much less a vehicle.
