Xantia tank overfill pipe [fix]

EN

Problem: one day after fuelling to the top, I found out on the parking lot that under the car start forming fuel lake.

Baaad. The problem was that overfill pipe or what ever name it hold :

Solution: Slightly cut the old hose(plastic pipe) on the ends and pull it out. It goes over the tank. If you wish can find number for new one in Citroen Service website, or make like me.

Bought thick fuel hose with 12mm inside diameter. Use hot gun to make rubber soft and easy to plug it on the ends.

Because, taking down the fuel tank is not easy job, I just use the free space close to the fuel main lines, under the tank behind the fuel filter and then to the end. Mission accomplished!
