Where to find Fuel Filler Hose

I had been having some bad fuel leaks for some time now. So Last night I removed the rubber hose that connects the Fuel Funnel to the Fuel Tank as it was badly cracked and hard. Only problem is where do I find one?

I want to replace it with a fresh one. Anyone know of a place that sells them? I believe super cheap doesn't, and have tried Mitsubishi but they are all discontinued.

Help would be appreciated and I need it asap as I don't like having this stuff disconnected for long in my garage with the fumes going everywhere. Cheers.

Isn't it just reinforced rubber hose Woody?? Get the right size and it'll be right again for 20-odd years...

I am pretty sure I can't use anything like coolant hose as it won't last. Am I wrong in thinking this?

Coolant hose is a BIG NO NO .Use A dedicated Fuel Injection hose only.

Go to EnZed or Pirtek with your old one & get them to match it with a suitable fuel resistant product.
