 Its located at the ends of the tank and fuel filler tube. These are ring 
like pieces of rubber that make up the difference in the size of the hose 
(the large diameter one). This hose should also be checked for cracks and 
moisture (fuel), as I had to replace this hose on my wife's Fasty to get rid 
of the fuel smell in it. I noticed that it was wet on the outside, so I took 
it off and looked inside (its cloth braided on the outside) and saw the 
cracks in it. I got my hose from NAPA, as they were the only ones who stock 
that kind of hose near me. The smaller "J" shaped hose had already been 
replaced, and wasn't leaking. I hope this helps.
