I have bought hoses from Tanks, Inc. and cut/spliced them to make up hard to find hoses.
http://www.tanksinc.com/index.cfm/page/ptype=results/category_id=167/mode=cat/cat167.htm Also, tractors use fuel hoses and I have found some on antique tractor parts vendor websites. Our local Carquest has some available that they cut to length, too. Of course, an original is better but not always available. |

they're not available new, and you wouldn't want an NOS one anyway, the rubber has all gone stiff and useless.
i too fabricated one. i got hose and a locking cap and etc from http://fuelfillersupply.com/. the filler neck at the top, on the fender, was some effort though. i got some exhaust "reducers" from AutoZOne, steel pipe i forget the diameters, that necked down from something like 2.25 to 2.00, cut a "v" out of it, bent it closed, welded that, and welded the big end onto the gas cap bayonet socket htat bolts to the fender. the V cut and weld put the 2" end of the short pipe at thr right angle to accept standard 2" fuel filler hose as a straight shot down to the tank. i know of no other way to fix this without fabrication of some sort. probably not the answer you wanted to hear. there are at least two threads on this forum for this very subject. |

NAPA has like 31 choices for fuel filler hoses. You may want to go through what they offer.
