Fuel Filler Neck: Description and Operation

Fuel Filler Neck Assembly






The filler neck consists of a stainless steel upper section and a convolute nylon lower section. The nylon lower is joined at one end to the tank and at the other to the stainless upper section where both joints utilise a short piece of rubber hose. The joint at the fuel tank is secured using a spring assisted hose clip which has a shear off cap.


NOTE: The spring assisted clip must never be re-used, if removed a new clip of the same type must be fitted.


Tank vent connections are achieved using serviceable plastic quickfit connectors. The filler cap is tethered to the body of the vehicle. Only a cap of this type must be used as a replacement.
