1983 50 Rancher question!

[Bootsie]

I have a 50 Rancher and I need to know what the size of the fuel line is. The IPL and manuals do not specify. Anyone know off hand what the o/d i/d is? Thanks in advance.

3/32x3/16 or 1/8x3/16 will both work. Check out this thread for pictures on how to pull your new line through with a piece of wire. The work is being done on a different saw but it is the same principal.

OEM line OD measured 0.202. (5mm=0.196 and 5.5 mm=0.216)
Not dead sure but think the Oregon yellow line (0.117 x 0.211 - id/od) worked as replacement on Model 50.

Go with Roanoker

I too have a 50 from 1983, I love my old white top! I used a line that I bought for my 362xp. Worked like a charm.:msp_wink:
