The Fiat Ducato fuel tank filler hose pipe joiner connector for 1994 to 2006 models. It is a direct-fit replacement for the original, built to SAE J30 R6 fuel specification.

Age and ethanol. The filler joiner sits in a wheel arch collecting road spray, and on a van of this age it has been perishing for years. Ethanol in modern pump fuel attacks the original rubber from the inside, so it degrades internally while looking passable from outside.

A fuel smell around the rear of the vehicle, fuel staining or damp on the underside near the tank, and difficulty filling without the pump cutting out. On a working van the smell is usually noticed first, often after a full fill.

Yes - built to SAE J30 R6 and formulated for modern ethanol-blended fuel as well as diesel. That is the main reason to replace an original: the fuel available now is not what the vehicle was built for, and the original compound is not equal to it.

The listing covers 1994 to 2006. Check the year and, if you can, compare against the old part before ordering - Fiat, Peugeot and Citroen shared this platform, so parts often cross over between Ducato, Boxer and Relay. Send photos with a tape measure if you are unsure.

The Boxer has its own listing for the equivalent 1994 to 2006 period, since the platform is shared. If you have a Boxer or Relay rather than a Ducato, check that listing - and if you are unsure which you need, send us the registration and we will confirm.
