    The hose closest to the filler neck is small 3/16. The other hose is 1/2 inch.

    It's great not only for the two vents ,but also comes with a filler neck.Do you think that neck is usable or maybe we have to use our old ones?This site was recommended to me by this site,it's a little cheaper and I was told (have to verify) that they carry the preferable Canadian tanks.

    From that picture it does look kind of right.

    Do you have one on order???

    I could not find your other post about the tank I have. Do you want me to bring it on Saturday to E-Town? or forget it? I am very tight on space. I have a new person helping me this year and if all goes well I will get 2 spots and I should have more Buick Stuff next year. Stop bye and say hello if you decide to go.

    Bob no i dont have one on order but i think i`m convinced its the same tank because `67 442 gas tank venting was the same as `67 Skylarks and GS`s,so dont bring urs i`d rather get a new one but i will stop by and say hello,see ya saturday.

    Thanks

    Just giving an update here,i finally got the tank and installed it,its exactly like the original `67 with the 2 vents and fit like a glove,the only thing i had to do was take a pry bar and bend the neck alittle downwards now its perfect.

    Thanks

    Thanks very much for sharing the info. George.Thats great news.Did you get it through Tamaraz?If you get any chance is it possible to take a picture of how you ran vent lines etc.With the two vents a non-vented cap right?Sorry for all the questions I'm just sick of having a messed up set-up in mine and want it right once and for all.
    Thanks for all and congrats again on the "Widow".

    David,i ran the vent hoses like they were stock behind the bumper where there`s a strap that holds them in place and a non vented cap(nos one from ebay)i think they should list that gas tank for 67 GS and Skylark besides 67 442,they dont know,i got mine from this guy
