    Fuel Tank Ventilation?

    I'm hoping someone might help me identify what two inlets or pipes go to. I believe they have to do with the fuel tank ventilation but I think some has cut some of the system out. Can anyone tell me what this is supposed to look like and what its for?

    Thanks

    Chris

    I have the expansion tank and fuel line divider coupling, with the hoses for sale in the used parts section, I believe it's under fuel recovery

    A follow up question, has anyone replaced these metal tubes through the fender? If so, where did you source the pipe from?

    I have not had the need to replace the tubes, but I'm betting that McMaster-Carr will be a source...their online catalog is superb and their shipping is immediate.

    It looks like you have the section of tube inside the Frunk. If it was me, I would get open up the hole (without damaging the existing tube) and add a hose barb to the outside to give me a place to attach the tube to the expansion tank.

    If I had brazing skills, I would braze in a small section of metal tubing.
