I have a 1999 190CCF Wellcraft. The filter froze & broke on the rwa

Are you talking about the little inlet line screen that keeps big
rocks out of the pump? I've got a couple in the shop and can take a
look to see what size screen then but I'd guess about 1.8".

This is a clear plastic inline filter that looks just like a clear
fuel filter, but yes, the filter/screen is in that size range.. Is
rubber hose sized by OD or ID?
Thanks

Rubber hose is sized by its inside diameter.

As best I could understand, if it's tube it's inside.
Pipe is outside.

"Tubing" is measured on the outside; pipe is different as its size is
the "nominal" ID, but actually neither the inside or outside have any
relationship to anything.

Most rubber and plastic hose is measured on the inside.

Thank you bruce for correcting my memory which stinks!
Looks like I got is bass-ackwards.


You'd be right at home here as, as far as I can tell there is only one
word for a long hollow device to carry water, and that is "pap", so
when you want tubing you either find a place that speaks English
(usually more expensive) or use the classic statement "like this one"
adding the qualifier "but bigger" or "but smaller" :-)
