Parts Sources

  • Nissan. Call Ericksen Nissan's toll-free number. If Ericksen says they can't get a part let us know (click "Edit" and add it to this article). Also, if they do get the part for you, let us know that too!
    • NOTE: Nissan USA is out of stock forever of the Sedan hose. But perhaps they can get the Coupe hose.
  • Wreckers, if you can find a 1200 in a wrecking yard
  • Friends with parts cars
  • Marine supply stores, for general fuel hose and filler hose. NAPA and other old-line auto parts store carry this generic fuel-rated hose also. Trimmed to length using the old filler hose as a guide. It is tough getting it to flex into shape, but can be done.

Sedan

Note that the USA B110 sedan tank uses a 2-piece filler hose (there's a small hose inside the bigger one). This is for the EVAPO (emissions market) vehicles:
