Yes I have one hose on each motor leaking a little. I want to replace all of them. I could easily get some standard hoses made up. I thought I should stay with the OEM style of ends because of the gradual 90 degree turn. Where a standard 90 fitting would impede flow? These are not hot rod engines (415 hp) but I do run for extended periods of time at cruise RPM of 3600 to 3800 rpms. Would standard ends be OK? Or should I just get OEM stuff? If I could get just the ends a local shop could assemble the hose.

Thanks everyone for the responses!!

Look for a parker store in your area. I had my lines made at a place called Fluid Systems Engineering (aka the parker store) here in the Detroit area.

If there is a Goodyear hose dealer near you, they can make up anything you need. I had the braided trim lines running to my outdrives made by them, and save a bunch over the Merc parts.

Thanks guys for all the help. I just ordered new lines from the Marine Power dealer. Got a pretty good deal six hoses for about 150.00 bucks. Can't complain about that. Thanks again for all the suggestions
