I will post some picutes later but I have questions about the type of hose connections that should be used on the CNG lines. I have torn apart my cocpit locker and am rerouting all of the wiring and hoses to neaten things up. The funny thing is the hose connections look like they are just barb fittings with no hose clamps. I know I know pictures pictures. I will post tonight. I am reasonably sure this is the oem setup and does not leak but the connections look odd. I was a little suprized at the way the other hoses and wiring was routed from the engine and cabin into and through this locker. It all looks like oem work but was not very well thought out. Perhaps it was redone... I will post all of my photos from my head replumbing job and this project.
Another thing that I found thats funny is the vent fittings that are mounted in the transom. When I went to replace them I found ones in all the marine stores with barb fittings to accept 9/16" hose. No one sells 9/16 hose however. I could not find it in fuel, water, or sanitation hose... I used ones with 3/8 pipethread and the appropriate adapters but i found this funny. Guess I have had my head in that cockpit locker too long.
