Hi there
Anybody know the size of the fuel breather pipes that come from the tank to the wheel arch vapour tanks?
Also are these absolutely necessary? Do people delete these - they seem a little useless in the UK environment?

They aren't entirely useless - if you don't have them the fuel tank can't drain (in theory) as what goes out must be replaced with air. If you don't have the tank but just have the ends then if the van rolls fuel will leak.
