Heres the thing finding a pressurized fuel tank is hard. On ebay they are junk or very expensive $150.00 or more I have a 1960 evinrude 5.5 fisherman I can use the same tank for both. I don't know if this 1954 evinrude will run I know theres a way just don't know how or what parts I need

I read your info isnt there a way to use the one pressure line that there already there. why cap it off and make a new one? My 7.5 is different then the one in your illustration. do you have a video ? or any info where to get the parts?

what do i do with the line that goes to the gas tank (the pressure line) isn't this a pulse line can't I connect this line to the fuel pump?

If i don't have to mess with intake manifold the nipple I would be capping is the pressure line that goes to tank? then put a bypass in the cover for the pulse what kind of fuel pump does it matter or do you recommend one
