Fuel Tank Breather Hose

Greetings,

Defender 110's fuel tank breather hose has multiple splits on the end towards the fuel cap and completely torn loose on the other end on the fuel tank.

I might consider replacing it with a rubber hose of similar diameter and length if the price is too high.
I've highlighted the hose in the attached diagram. Can anyone provide a part number for this, and what are the implications of running without a breather hose?

Thanks in advance.

I think mine is damaged blocked too.

My 110 periodically loosed power on long motorway drives. ( eg, to the Alps and back!)
It recovers after I've pumped the accelerator. I suspect it's a vacuum build up in the fuel tank ( any other suggestions Landyheads ?)

So I suspect you really do need air to get in and I wouldn't run without a one. Suspect any pipe would do as long as it the right diameter.
- get one from an aquarium shop!
Also note the fuel cap has a little ball bearing valve in it - this need to work ( not be blocked) to let air into the filler pipe, where the breather - er - breaths in from.

I think this is what you're after
