    Currently I have a 3/8″ rubber fuel line from the fuel tanks to my racor fuel filter, I purchased the SMX Double Double fuel filter system, is the 3/8″ fuel line sufficient for the new fuel filters ? The engine is a 1989 6BT 210HP, Thanks in advance

    Best to use 1/2″ ID from the tank to any filter system.. You do not want a clogging of debris–IE, get it out of the tank(s) to to the filters..
