[QUOTE="Polarpower, post: 294074, member: 4773"] My 2008 Lund Explorer has a spare fuel pickup already installed in the tank for a kicker motor - I decided to go the hard route and go direct into the spare pickup. The easy route is simply to cut the existing fuel line to your big motor somewhere convenient (in front of the primer bulb, if Verados even have one, I'm not sure?), install a three way barb tee fitting, and then connect your kicker fuel supply line to the tee. The downfall of doing this is that the kicker will pull gas from the big engine. This probably isn't a huge deal on a Verado with an electric fuel lift pump because it will quickly self-prime, but in the days of carb'd engines this becomes a giant PITA when the one-way check valve in the primer bulb to the big engine fails.
