Bronco II Fuel Filler Hose

[Largoman]

Mine has started dripping when I'm filling the tank. Only leaks when doing this. Looks like a leak at the tank end. I called Ford and they don't handle the part anymore, called the parts shops and they don't either. Any suggestions on fixing or replacing this hose? I don't want to start untill I find a replacement or a solution before I disassemble anything! Thanks

Head on over to LMC truck for parts.

But a bit of advice first, figure out what's leaking exactly. Filler necks are expensive, and the easiest/cheapest way to replace them is a junkyard and some tools. But a lot of times it's just the hose clamps, so get some good stainless ones either from LMC or another supplier, and replace the old ones.
A good wormdrive clamp won't have the slots cut all the way through, just notched into it, so it doesn't cut into the hose when tightened down a little too much.

I can get the sizes if you need 'em.

I'd only replace the whole neck as a last resort.

Are you sure it is the hose? Have you checked to make sure it doesn't just need a new clamp put on the end?

As for finding a replacement......
Your local JY might have one.
Found this one, but OUCH, it takes a chunk out the bill fold.

definately would be hitting up the junkyard on that one.

I'm looking at a picture of the fuel filler hose assembly....the hose appears to have 2 ends on it. Is there anything connecting those ends or is it just a piece of hose held onto those end pieces by clamps? JC Whitney sells a replacement hose but it doesnt look like it has the end pieces. Also...anyone know what the diameter of the hose is?
Thanks for the replys and suggestions so far.
