Re: diesel filler hose
You need to give it a couple of days. Often people will be checking their own installations or their notes before responding.
I can tell you that hose sizes are ID (Inside Diameter) so if you pull your hose off of the fitting and measure the hose barb on the tank you'll have your answer.
Good luck!

Re: diesel filler hose
thank you .... I did try to remove the hose but it has been on for so long I will have to cut it off. I was hopping I could get the right size so that when I do cut it off I have the replacement ready to install... hopefully someone will come through with an answer..

Re: diesel filler hose
Most fuel fill hoses are 1 1/2". The size is not so much related to the size of the fuel tank, but how fast most fuel pumps deliver fuel. The fuel vent size is important too.

I "believe" Scubapete is right with 1 1/2" as my aging memory of my 2002 TE.
Removal can be assisted with slowly pouring hot water over hose before you try to remove. What REALLY helps is having a hose breaking tool found at most automotive supply stores.
