What is the correct hose diameter size and length for a 1966 Evinrude 80hp Starflite?

Use 3/8" for tank to engine. Length as needed.

3/8" was required for V-6 engines.----I believe 5/16" was standard on 1966 models.

Yes, I believe so but those things were fuel pigs & 3/8" won't hurt. Also, it's a good price.

Will the connectors on this new hose work on my old tank and engine?

Connectors are all the same from 1958
