- Position the new fuel tap cock switch in the correct orientation, aligning the fuel inlet and outlet ports with your fuel lines.
- Secure the new switch using the original mounting hardware or provided fasteners. Tighten evenly to manufacturer specifications.
- Reconnect the fuel line to the new fuel cock assembly, ensuring all connections are snug and leak-free.

Troubleshooting & FAQ
Q: How do I confirm this fuel tap cock switch fits my Tohatsu or Mercury outboard?
