metal fuel pipe and breather pipe needed asap

[farmerjohn]

Hi All,
i have just bought a galant 2.5 v6 sprt saloon. on the way home from purchasing it the car leaked quite a bit of fuel when i filled it up, on close inspection the fuel pipe and breather pipe are very corroded. The filler pipe from the filling point has rusted through to leave a 3mm hole in the metal pipe right at the end where it is sleeved into the rubber pipe that goes into the top of the tank. Also the breather pipe has completely corroded into 2 pieces. Any advice on a replacement fuel and fillar pipe would be much appreciated. I can try breakers yards, if i do, does anyone know if it is the same shape as a estate model? and the same as a VR4? i do need to get it sorted asap as i want to drive her, but am reluctant to leave fuel all over a forecourt. Thanks, in advance and i hope this is the first of many posts (and i'm already thinking of a VR4 in a few months). I take it an after market 3rd party manufacture is not an option, failing these anyone any idea how much mitubishi would charge for one?

Thanks, john

They are about £120 I think for a vr4 . I tried numerous times to get a decent 2nd hand one with no luck, due to the age of the vehicles. I would have thought yours may be around this sort of price.

was that from a Mitsubishi dealer?

I paid £128.88 for my filler neck from the local Mitsubishi dealer. Special order part which took a few weeks to arrive from Japan at the time. Not sure if it's the same part number for a non VR4. A dealer would be able to confirm it if you supply your reg no or someone on here who has access to asa.
