Hello Vanafans!! I just dropped the gas tank on my 85 to prep for
undercoating. I did a reseal about 8 years ago and thinking I'll put new
seals in again just because. Anyway, The neck of my filler tube is all
metal at the top where it gets screwed into the trim ring. It is crimped
onto the plastic tube that enters the tank. Now the filler hole has the
inner flap that the gas pump nozzle enters when filling. As I look for a
new one, all I'm seeing is the rubber filler neck tube part available and
this part doesn't seem to have the protective inner flap. Also, I'm
looking for a late model filler tube with the floating ball end to
eliminate the overflow problem. Does anyone have one? (Why isn't Go Westy
or Bus Depot supplying these??? Seems like a no brainer and a BIG
improvement to anyone resealing there tanks!!!) I suppose I could try to
clean my rusty metal up and repaint the exterior of it, but there is some
corrosion just outside the inner metal flap. Who's got the low down on
this!?!
