shameless is starting off with a positive reputation.
anybody ever replaced a fuel neck?

I've tracked down my fuel leak to the fuel neck area, its definately leaking from the upper side of the neck, is this one piece or is there a seal in there somewhere? I know theres a grommet in there, but I dont know if thats just to hold it in place, or if its to seal the fuel into the neck. This thing has a steady drip (2 or so drips per second probably.) when leaning to the drivers side. just doing some homework before I tear into it anymore. lol

Just the filler neck clamps to the filler hose which clamps to the tank.

Same with the vent hose.

so is the grommet just there to hold the top of the neck in place?

Yes, there should also be a clamp near the other end holding it under the bed.
