Trying to get back in the air after 4 months of down time. I'd like to start by installing one of these:

I can't find a fitting on the aircraft spruce web site that would mate this thing to the 1/8 id fuel primer line they sell. Also, I take it I'll need a 1/4 to 1/8 reducing Tee to tap into the feed from the tank but I can't find that either. What am I missing?

Luis, go to this link and click on hose barb then click on a picture that looks like what you need to see the sizes available.

I'm not sure what the fitting is, but lately I've been making/
modifying primer lines on a 172 Cessna, and that engine uses a small
fitting with a round nose, which is silver soldered to the 1/8 fuel
lines. My flight instructor has been ordering all the parts from
McFairlane (sp?) so I don't know exactly the part numbers are, but
maybe a check at a local airport might turn up something. In the
meantime, I'll look further into it.

I have the original primer kit and instructions as supplied from Kit Fox with the 1992 M4-1200 kit I was building, I decided not to install it at the time of the build. If anyone is interested it is available for a modest price plus postage. Please contact me off list, Don
