Petrol Leak !!!!

Petrol Leak !!!! by Icy Malt on Wed May 13, 2009 11:11 am
Has anybody had to replace the bigger rubber hose that connects the hard plastic filler pipe to the top of the petrol tank

Mine has a small split in it, and leaks when filling up, but luckly not while driving

Is it just a standard rubber petrol hose that I could get, or will it be a breakers job.

Welcome to the club, mine leaks at the breather pipe alongside the main filler, I've patched it up in two places.
I'm told its no longer serviced by Vauxhall, so it will probably have to be a breaker job....just remember fuel evaporates through the same hole :(
What have I told you about Thinking Erroll??
