Is the 5/16 line OK to use from the tank to the bulb? I upgraded the bulb to cowling line and have plenty to do from the tank to the bulb. It has 3/8 now. I have the new EPA compliant hose. This is on an 06 250 XS. Thanks

5/16" is suitable for runs 8' or less, in nearly EVERY case.
Always suitable between the primer bulb and the engine.
In most cases, 3/8" is utilized between the FUEL TANK(s) and Primer Bulb.
