This replacement can be pricey. Any alternative suggestions for replacing this 4mm rubber hose for the evaporative canister at the top of fuel tank.

3.5mm VW vacuum hose might work. Might need to warm it up a bit before fitting it. At only $4.28/meter it could be worth a try.

I purchased some of that hose at a local parts store. Auto Zone I think.
Purchased more than I needed for a couple of bucks. Works great.

No hurry. Car is now put away for the winter up here in Whitefish, Montana. Let me know when you get the hose. Thanks.
