Hiya,

An Etec will have alcohol resistant hoses, so I highly doubt those fuel lines would be an issue. If that was an issue, it would not create a loss of fuel pressure...it would cause a problem in the fuel delivery system in the engine itself. This type of this is only a problem on older engines where the owner has left fuel in the lines for extended periods of time.

True on an all new rig unless you repowered (as I did) hanging a 2016 Etec on a 20 year old boat.

I know, but I love the boat and I got a smokin' deal on the motor. No down side here. The rigger replaced the short hose when they hung the new motor. I replaced the rest this spring knowing what I know and not wanting to take a chance. Cheap insurance...
