I Let My Nevada 850 Sit and...

[Trevor G]

Yep, it's an Ed Milich Nevada 850, and I ignored it after I got my Mana 850 GT in 2018. So silly, I know.

I checked the fuel tank recently and it contained a gallon or so of gritty, stale fuel.

I removed the cover over the fuel pump in the tank and a hose had perished.

Is there a solution?

Solution is submersible high pressure fuel injection line from local auto parts store and high-quality fuel injection eared hose clamps with rolled edges (not worm gear clamps) from McMaster Carr or else where.

Use Oetiker clamps.

Both of the items I mentioned are available on Amazon. That is not a recommendation to purchase them there but as illustration of availability.
