Resurrecting an old thread. Got a call from my building today, the cobra (built in 2005) was leaking gas all over the place. Long story short, the rubber fuel hose connecting the filler neck to the stainless tank had completely corroded to the point of allowing fuel to leak out at a high rate! I’ve never seen anything like it; obviously these hoses don’t last forever. After several bags of cat litter and several hours of clean up. I temporarily replaced the hose with a piece of radiator hose. Obviously that can’t stay, so the question is, what diameter is the connector hose? I’m sure my next questions will be related to clogged up fuel system, given the job the gas did on the old hose...
