( Leaks around the Diff / IRS cradle) Also this option looks better than using a second hand hose: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/114784342636 The hose is 1.25inch or 32mm approx fuel / Oil hose (tank side nozzle), plus an extra clamp on the neck filler side nozzle as smaller diameter. Low pressure so should be fine if clamps are tight. Originally FORD used a smaller diameter hose and stretched it over the larger Fuel tank nozzle. It can split, crack & perish over time. Mine did also after 15years approx ( 2005 BF XR8 ). This option is the opposite. This hose fits OK over Fuel tank Nozzle & then use 2 clamps (very tight) to seal Fuel neck size which is slightly smaller diameter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get some Bunnings clear hose. It is fuel safe and will fit both ends with a bit of hot water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was dry in those spots, but pissed out from further along where you can't see. Ran down all over the rear from up on the very top. Forgot to look for pics last night But yeah, get a new fuel tank put in. Mine was from a wreckers. Fuel smell is gone 100% now, certainly no big spills. Hi. Do you recall if the replacement tank was a 2 line or 3 line tank ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
