Save your money, use the boat or leave it empty and I switched to bombadier fuel line from the silver when I switched and no issues. Honest not a hicup, you do have to use the boat often which is hard for northern guys so leave it empty, no option

I agree...the same happened to me. I even did a post. What I found out was I needed to change fuel filter every 10 hours or so until all the loose junk got out.

Last week I went out and bang around about 7 miles off shore(snotty seas) and coming in the motor started acting up. By the time I got to the dock it was barely running.

Changed the filter. Started up coughed a few times and now running good.

Drained the filter and yep, water and junk. The rough seas broke loose more of the sediment loosened up by e10.

So I guess use it or loose it :D :D

If you're getting ethanol deterioration, change ALL your fuel lines.
