The fuel tap on this outboard is occasionally leaking. Is it possible to retrofit an alternative to the recommended Suzuki part which is about £28 vs universal alternatives of a few quid?
Any idea if it's 6mm or 8mm ID?Start with a cheapo - if it leaks then splash out on the Suzuki part.
Dont forget that the fuel tap incorporates the filter. Cheap universal taps may be in line taps which might be difficult to fit so that they are accessible and probably wont include a filter which will have to be sought separatelyThe fuel tap on this outboard is occasionally leaking.

Thanks for your input, are you telling me there should be a filter inside the tap (see below)?Dont forget that the fuel tap incorporates the filter.

Google will find the right tap for about £15 or £16
