    Help With Fuel Hose

    I might have accidentally punctured (slightly) the plastic evap hose circled in red. I am assuming this is the hose that comes from the evaporator canister and only fumes are transferred across. Any harm in just wrapping it with duct tape?

    Cut the tubing at the puncture and splice with a short piece of rubber hose. If the hose is a really tight fit on the tubing you won't need any clamps. While that is only a vapor line, gas fumes will dissolve duct tape's adhesive, so that would not be a good fix.
    The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.

      You are the freakin' man. Im assuming an 8mm hose will work? Ive got plenty of that right now and I'm not at home to check for fitting.
      Thanks for the quick answer.
