Grease hose

[TimV]

The grease hose on my jet pump is starting to crack and needs to be replaced,my question is can it be replaced with gas line or is there a specific type of hose that
should be used and the crimped clamps on the hose can they be replaced with regular hose clamps without any problems.

When I made a 24" extension for my hand pumped grease gun,
I got the generic 1/4" fuel line from Auto Zone and the sales guy
said it is compatible with all petroleum products.

so, I would say "yes"

and if you want the special fittings crimped on each end, NAPA will make it up for you
for a hand full of coins. Basically, custom made hydraulic hose.

I just replaced the grease tube on my pump. I found it was easiest just to get a new tube assembly at the boat repair shop. They are all pretty much the same. Mine came with the fittings crimped on and it also came with a new grease zerk. I paid around $20 for the kit.

Thanks for the replies.

They are around $20 from outboard jets. I've never seen those type of fittings on other boats. If I took one to a marina would they know what it was? If so that may be cheaper.
