    If you need a 6" piece of the gas tank hose let me know.
    I had to buy a 36" length from my local NAPA store.
    It cost me $30...I'll cut you a piece free..just pay the freight. This way I'll feel better about paying too much.

    I was able to buy 1 foot of the filler hose at Auto Zone, or maybe it was O'Rielys. But I bet Cashmiers offer would be cheaper.

    Thanks vanishing, would you happen to know how to get in touch with him? I searched under dennis but wasnt confident who it was. Going to give autozone a try on the filler hose and if they dont have it im going to get in touch with you casimier. Thanks for the help guys. Got to working on the dog house then couldnt access thru my phone for some reason last night.

    When I replaced mine I went to Home Depot and bought a couple of turnbuckles to replace the J bolts. Quick and easy
