I'm slowly restoring 3 Oliver outboard motors and have run into a problem. I need to find a correct fuel fitting and fuel check ball for them. It is an air quick coupler style that is smaller then normal. The fitting has 1/8" straight pipe threads, body diameter of .444, stem is .312 diameter and is 1.375 long overall. The larger fitting (for comparison only) is a standard air fitting with 1/4" pipe thread.

The plastic ball is 1/4" diameter and must resist gasoline. I just wonder what type of plastic material should be used for it.

None of the marine supply places around here have these. I need to find the male and female parts and the ball.

Any Help??

Oliver; I am pretty sure i can help you out on this. The male and female fittings are not uncommon, used in the hydraulic field . I may even have them at the shop. the nylon ball i may have as well. i will check in the morning. If you would like , pm me your phone number and i'll let ya know.
