I'm trying to hunt down a fuel filler hose - the one that goes from the filler to the tank. Ideally in Australia as I need it ASAP a to get the 101 back on the road - I've left my run a bit late to order from OS unfortunately.

Or, if you have a new or good second hand one that you would be happy to lend me while I ship you a new one?

Thanks in advance - Gav.

I got mine from AJ for a reasonable price. As a temporary measure you could use rescue self amalgamating tape to tape up what you have and seal it up.

AJ must be on holidays as I've left messages and emails for him during the last week and he hasn't got back to me.

I like the amalgamating tape idea - I'll give that a go.

Cheers.

Make sure it is rescue tape as it is designed for the task. Not sure how it will stick to the fabric covering on the filler pipe - works well on straight rubber though,

This is what I have
