Troubleshooting & FAQ

Q: How do I confirm this fuel connector protector fits my Tohatsu or Hangkai motor?
A: Verify that your outboard is an MFS series model rated between 4 HP and 40 HP, and cross-reference your current part number with 3H6-70262-0 or 3H6702620M. If your existing protector matches the dimensions shown in the product images, this replacement will fit.

Q: How often should I replace the fuel connector protector?
A: Inspect the protector annually or whenever you service the fuel system. Replace it immediately if you notice cracks, hardening, swelling, or fuel leaks around the connector—typically every 2–3 years under normal operating conditions.

Q: What are the signs that my fuel connector protector is failing?
A: Look for visible cracking or brittleness in the rubber, fuel odor near the connector, difficulty connecting or disconnecting the fuel line, or fuel seepage around the connection point. Any of these indicate immediate replacement is needed.

Q: Will this protector work with aftermarket fuel lines?
A: Yes, as long as your aftermarket fuel line uses the standard Tohatsu/Hangkai MFS connector fitting. The protector is designed to fit the OEM connector dimensions and should accommodate compatible aftermarket fittings.
