    Just saying that a 1/2" copper pipe for water like at the depot or menards will not work, its close but not correct.
    If I don't ask any questions, I'll never learn anything.

    If the OP doesn't want or need the tube, I'd be happy to buy one from a member. 3/4 inch is too big.
    The size the bullet123 listed sounds about right.

    PM sent to bullet123, but I'm not trying to weasel in and "beat" the OP out of a water tube.

    The OP may have found one, tried to make one (as they indicated), or maybe just isn't checking in on the forum.

    If anyone else has one, please post. I need onf for a 20" lower unit, but I'm happy to cut down a tube from a 25" lower unit

    -Phil

    P.S. -- I'll also post in the parts wanted thread if I don't see a reply here.

    Cheers!

    FYI to all, I posted a WTB in the "Parts Wanted" thread, and indicated that I need the part, and another forum member likely also needs the same part. I'll post here and/or PM the OP if I get a lead on more than one of these parts. I'm sure that there are few floating around with the forum regulars, and I assume that we'd be able to find two of them easily.

    FYI.

    OP. ((@aaron78viper), Bullet123 has one from a 25" motor that can be cut-down, and merclover has one that's from a 20".

    Both are reasonably priced. You can PM them directly.

    I'm planning to buy one of them, but there's another available for you if you're interested.
