Is 3/16 close enough?
Thanks

Model # would be helpful as there are lots of Honda small engines. ;)

My GCV160 has 5.5mm fuel lines (.217"). That would equate to 7/32", but good luck with that size.

BTW 3/16 = .1875. Doubt if you can stretch it that far without distortion that will limit its life.

Part number for 5.5 mm bulk hose, which by the way, I found at a Honda motorcycle dealer is 95001-55008-60M.

Good luck.

Right now I am working on a GX620.
It has 1/4 fuel line from the fuel pump to the carb and it leaks.
I found some on ebay 55.00 for 26 feet 5.5mm I will give it a try
Thanks

1/4" = .250"
5.5mm = .217"

How is that even close to a match? Good luck.

1/4" fuel line is readily available at any real auto parts store.

Wonder if 7/32 (.219) fuel line would work very close to 5.5 mm .
