I am replacing the fuel pump in my 98 jimmy. I can't for the life of me get the filler hose off the tank any ideas

Wrap a pair of channel locks around the hose at the tank and twist it until it breaks loose. Or you could always remove the entire hose by removing a few torx bolts from underneath the fuel door..

razor blade and replace it....i just did the same thing on my 96 blazer and 10 year old rubber hoses just dont come off

Keep in mind a replacement fuel-safe hose can run up to $70 a foot....

$70/foot?!?!? i got both the vent pipe hose and fuel filler hose for $12 at a napa store, i dunno how safe it is but it works, and at the dealer i think they wanted $20 for just the fuel filler hose section

:iagree:
Fuel-safe?. You must be joking.
I also went to napa and got a piece of hose for $5.00. Just as safe as the rubber fittings on the fuel lines into/out of the filters.
Why pay the dealer to go down to Napa and buy the same hose, then sell it to you at a 400% mark-up?

Yeah, but we only had a hoe'reillys, n those pimple-faced kids running it aren't "top notch" They coulda been tryin to sell me a flex hose er something..
