To the Vanagon Community At Large: Is there any "hard" reason for the Fuel Tank Vapor Crossover Assembly to have a rigid, fuel vapor-resistant plastic tube between the two nylon pieces that insert the tank? Can a more flexible piece of tube (or maybe even hose) be substituted in it's place? Reason for the inquiry - Looking to to repro this piece to offer at a much affordable price than the obscene $48 currently charged. Don't want to cut corners, but if there's a better way, I'm all ears. Comments, suggestions and poison pen letter cheerfully accepted ;-) -- Jim Thompson 84 GL 1.9 "Gloria" 84 Westfalia 2.1 "Ole Putt" 73 K Ghia Coupe "Denise" 72 411 Station Wagon "Pug" oldvolkshome@gmail.com http://www.oldvolkshome.com *********************************** |
