Re: G-16 fuel line leak
Fuel lines can be purchased at any auto parts store. Remove it and take it to the store to insure that you get the right size, while your at it, get enough to replace ALL the lines (their cheap). Don't forget the one that goes from the fuel pump to the rear of the engine The "white thing on the firewall" is the fuel pump. It usually fails due to a wore out diaphram. Don't think it "leaks". you may be loosing fuel from a line due to a bad connection. When you get new lines, buy new hose clamps also. the cart may still have the original spring clamps.
Note: never seen a "white fuel pump" |

Re: G-16 fuel line leak
You should be able to take apart the old pump. There is nothing in there but the diaphram. If there is a hole or tear in it, it won't create the suction required to draw fuel from the tank. That line going from the pump to the back of the engine is providing the pulsating vacuum. Any micro cracking in that line, as a result of age, will allow the pulse line to draw air into the line (no more vacuum). Fuel leaks generally , will come from the other lines as a results of , bad connections at the joints , or cracked lines (age again) You may try and look into the white pump to insure that that is the problem, I always hate spending money on parts I don't need.
