Subject:      Fuel Tank Leak Advice Needed
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-1"

Hi all.  When I bought my bus, I knew that there was a fuel leak - I posted
to the list, and you guys told me pretty much what it was and not to worry
about it.  Well, it turns out the list was right - I finally decided to see
if I could find the culprit today, and I did.

I have a 1984 WBX, and the leak is where the driver's side expansion tank
lines connect to the fuel tank.  The Y-shaped plastic piece is broken - the
arm of the Y that goes to the expansion tank hose is broken off.  I can see
it with the right combination of mirrors and lights.  I believe that is the
only part I will need from what I can see.

Does anyone have advice for what part numbers I need and how much I'm going
to have to do to fix this?  It looks like I'll need to drop the tank, unless
somehow I can maneuver my fingers down in there.  Not going to be pretty,
but at least I have a visual on the problem.  Thanks in advance.

Chris
