Picked up a new fuel line for my 8hp Yamaha the other day and noticed when I got home the diameter is 6mm , it looks quite a bit narrower then my old one .
What size is optimum ?

Mine is 3/8" and most that I've seen are that size. But, considering a 3/8" hose/bulb is used for outboards up to 200 HP, it's hard for me to imagine your 1/4" line not working just fine on an 8 HP. Not an expert, but...
