Gas tank filler hose.
Are LMC fuel filler hoses, and the vent hoses any good. They are about $20.00 each. Ac Delco cost about double , but they may be a lot better. What do you think? I bought the fuel pump tank seal from Rock Auto for $6.70 plus $2.04 for shipping. It is an AC Delco.

Re: Gas tank filler hose.
None of mine worked. I made sure I ordered everything right and then I checked the numbers on the packets when I got them to make sure they were what I ordered. Everything was right but both the vent and filler hoses were about 4" short. I had to go to O'Rielly's and get generic cut to fit hoses.

Re: Gas tank filler hose.
I ordered an LMC filler and vent hose a few months back, but due to the construction of my truck, my experience may not be typical. I've got a 79 cab, but a 84 front clip, and a few other years thrown into the mix here and there, no idea on the year of the bed and/or tanks. I may have ordered the wrong year, because I had to trim a couple inches off my filler tube. I can't recall if I had to trim my vent tube as well, but if so, it was only minor surgery. Everything fits like a glove now, all the bends are in the right place, I'm not dissapointed.
But this was also fairly recent, so I really can't give any input on longevity. |

Re: Gas tank filler hose.
The ones I recieved from them were GM and correct for 1979 with dual tanks.

Re: Gas tank filler hose.
Yes the vent had a 90 degree bend and the filler did too. Just way to short.
