Hi Rick, yes the black hose with the white tracer flecks. Would I be
able to use The Trident Barrier lined B1
<http://www.defender.com/product3.jsp?path=-1%7C2243574%7C2243581&id=1404042>
type fuel line on these? I guess it depends on whether the fittings
fit, right? ID .25 inch and OD .43 inch
From what I can tell there are 2 lines of text on the Ferrule;
1/4 1/4 1/4
5-5-5-5-5

Danny;
Are you talking about the black hose in the photo?
If you are, that hose has reusable fittings on it. They will simply
unscrew off the hose and can be reinstalled in a new length of hose.
That said, it would be best to take the hose assembly off the engine
and take it to a hose shop for replacement of the hose. There is a
technique to getting the fittings installed properly, and you don’t
want to screw it up. The fittings will have a manufacturers logo on
them – on a Westerbeke engine it will probably be Parker, but might be
Aeroquip. Go to an hydraulics shop the advertises that brand of hose.
Replacing the fittings on a new length of hose might take only 15 or
20 minutes.

Here's a closer look and you can see the 1/4 I'm talking about but, I
don't think I'll be reusing those...

What type of fitting is crimped to the hose? How about a picture
for all of us? It sounds like when you remove the hose you will
be forced to remove the fittings too. What would you replace them
with? How would they attach to the hose? Banjo? NPT? AN?
Flare? Compression? Barb? From the sounds of it most of us were
expecting that you simply had barb fittings and hose clamps. As
your description is evolving is sounds like it may not be so cut
and dry.

Hi Joe,
No they're a metal band crimped over the fitting.
