Default Gas Tank Filler Hose

Does anyone know the diameters of the larger gas tank filler hose and smaller filler vent hose?

TIA

Go buy one of these, it is used for sewing.

It is soft and can be wrapped around things, wrap it around the filler neck and measure the outside diameter.
Do the same with the vent tube.

And then divide by Pi to get the diameter.

Yeah that will be the plan. Going to order some POR-15 first. When I drop the tank to replace the hoses I will coat those areas so I don't have to drop it again.........

Spike, if you don't have to drop the tank, how do you get at the top? I have a crack in my over flow hose.
