I've broken the evap hose lock on several tanks. I just cleaned the plastic part it slides onto and applied some dielectric grease to it. The connector fits fairly tightly. They're never come off off leaked vacuum. I've never found any dirt, rust or sediment in any of my fuel tanks. Surprising really.

Don't forget to put some lube on the rubber gasket it helps seat and seal better

Clean wire connector s and fuel vent hose clean the lines under truck I put some Vaseline in the fill and vent hoses and dielectric grease on the o rings inside the evap hose and fuel line o ring after cleaning everything

I cleaned the wire connector and put some dielectric grease on them for a good corrosion free connection

I put this side of the tank up in its bracket I used 2 zipties to hold it for a min

Jacked the tank up slowly and connected everything up
