Overview
The MTS Company YJVH-1 is a replacement style fuel tank vent hose for the 1987-1995 Jeep Wrangler (YJ). It is a direct fit, intended to go into the stock location without modification.
A fuel tank vent hose is part of the fuel system’s vent line. MTS Company gives no length, diameter or material for the YJVH-1, so check those details with MTS before replacing the hose. Owners of a YJ who are repairing or replacing a worn vent hose would use this part.
The YJVH-1 is a vent hose sold on its own. Measure the old hose’s length, inside diameter and material, then compare them with the new hose before installation.

Replacing a worn vent hose
A fuel tank vent hose connects the fuel tank to the vent path that lets air move in and out as fuel level changes. When the hose cracks, hardens or collapses, the tank can build pressure or draw in vapor, which often shows up as a fuel smell near the tank or a rough feel during refueling. Replacing it is a routine job, but the work touches the fuel system, so plan it as a careful, contained repair.
Before pulling the old hose, note its route and where each end is clamped. Take a photo, count the bends and check that the new hose can follow the same path without rubbing against the frame, the body or any moving linkage. Inspect the fittings on both ends for corrosion or cracks, since a new hose will not seal properly against a damaged nipple.

Use hose clamps and fittings recommended by the manufacturer, route the hose away from heat, sharp edges and moving parts, and check for leaks after installation. Have a professional do the work if you are not comfortable with fuel system repairs.
