Hi all.

I don't see any pics in Bentley of this so.....

Is this hose routing stock?

Curious as protective pad is there. If stock, I wonder if my cheap
aftermarket tank is too large at that spot.

Would this hose position cause poor fitment of my gas tank (too low)
at filler pipe hole? Seems it would but if anyone else has dealt with
this....

Fill holes in old and new tank *seem* to be the same height-wise.
They're hard to measure.

A newb at the time of tank reseal, I recall cutting the hose back at
expansion tank valve to remove it. In "pulling up" slack I might have
re positioned hose between tank and frame.

This is on a tank with large ID metal filler neck.

Neil.
