Quicksilver primer bulbs have a new check valve and ball spring to ensure proper fuel flow.
See full version: Fuel System
Quicksilver primer bulbs have a new check valve and ball spring to ensure proper fuel flow.
Competitor primer bulbs have an inferior check valve that can stick when it’s closed. The stuck check valve will cause the engine to stall because fuel cannot flow properly. more
Bayonet-style push and turn style quick disconnect for older 6.6-gallon fuel tanks. more
This bulb is a 2011 EPA Certified low permeation bulb. For use with our gray color,
5/16 in. (8 mm) I.D. fuel line & 3/8" I.D. fuel line. here
Using materials resistant to the chemistry of today's fuels, this bulb is designed to
remain pliable longer. Two hose clamps are included. Mercury/Quicksilver bulbs
will have the molded EPA compliance statement "EPA.MERC.PB15". Bulbs

In its inorganic form, mercury occurs abundantly in the environment, primarily as the minerals cinnabar and metacinnabar, and as impurities in other minerals. Mercury can readily combine with chlorine, sulfur, and other elements, and subsequently weather to form inorganic salts. Inorganic mercury salts can be transported in water and occur in soil. Dust containing these salts can enter the air from mining deposits of ores that contain mercury. Emissions of both elemental or inorganic mercury can occur from coal-fired power plants, burning of municipal and medical waste, and from factories that use mercury. Inorganic mercury can also enter water or soil from the weathering of rocks that contain inorganic mercury salts, and from factories or water treatment facilities that release water contaminated with mercury.
Mercury becomes a problem for the environment when it it is released from rock and ends up in the atmosphere and in water. These releases can happen naturally. Both volcanoes and forest fires send mercury into the atmosphere. more
As it cycles between the atmosphere, land, and water, mercury undergoes a series of complex chemical and physical transformations, many of which are not completely understood. Microscopic organisms can combine mercury with carbon, thus converting it from an inorganic to organic form. Methylmercury is the most common organic mercury compound found in the environment, and is highly toxic. Learn about how people are most often exposed to methylmercury and about the adverse health effects that exposures to methylmercury can produce. more
