Glad you figured it out and it is a relatively simple fix.

I hope replacing that 1 1/2” hose was easy! ? Only done a couple and each was a bitch.

Yes I see that it may not be easy is has a nice bend right were you can't get to it.

My plan is to attach the new hose to the old hose with some zip ties and use the old to get the new one in and use plenty of soap to get it slippery.

Any other suggestions would be great.

But like Tyson once said everyone has a plan till they get punched in the face...LOL

I replaced my fuel inlet line several years ago when I replaced my fuel tank. It was difficult. I like the soapy idea. I pulled it downward towards the center line of the boat with a sturdy rope attached at the upper end to help guide the new hose into place. Doubt your ziptie approach will work and if they slip, the job just got tougher, IMO. Either way good luck.
