Its designed specifically for the engine end of Mercury clip-type fuel systems.

Parts Desk Insights

The 05791 is the engine-side clip fitting; the tank-side match is the Scepter 05793. Before ordering, confirm the customer has a clip-type Mercury system not a bayonet-type. Bayonet systems use different fittings entirely: for the tank side see the Scepter 07497 Mercury Tank Bayonet Fitting, and for the engine side see the Scepter 09476 Mercury Engine Bayonet Fitting. An updated tank-side clip fitting is also available as the Scepter 05837 worth checking if the customers engine year calls for the newer part. Mercury fittings are not interchangeable with Yamaha or BRP connectors.
