SWMBO's Amica car was smelling of petrol and I tracked it down to a split in the petrol pipe that goes from the filler to the tank itself. It's a corrugated pipe some 40 mm diam and fixed to the tank with a jubilee clip. The dealer can't get a new pipe for at least two weeks (!) . I've tried ebay and several sites and scrapyards but no go. Is there any way I can make up such a pipe? It's less than a metre long but I'm not sure what kind of tube is safe to use - neoprene perhaps? Or where to get such a thing. Thanks for any help.
