i need to replace what seals and hoses go to the fuel tank on my 83 westy. i need to know what to have on hand before i drop the tank. i can see one hose (a breather? underneath and going into the main filler) is brittle and breaking, and immediately weeps on filling, i imagine the rest are the same. i dont think i can afford to wait till after my cross country trip next week- not only does it leak on fill-up but i think a low pressure under the van while driving may be sucking out gas too- i had it happen on a mercedes diesel once, i left the fuel cap partly open once, lost half a tank. also, whats the procedure for dropping the tank? thanx in advance nick __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
