    Fuel Tank Breather Hose

    I think mine is damaged blocked too. My 110 periodically loosed power on long motorway drives. ( eg, to the Alps and back!) It recovers after I've pumped the accelerator. I suspect it's a vacuum build up in the fuel tank ( any other suggestions Landyheads ?) So I suspect you really do need...

    Commuting to the French Alps in a 110

    Yes mines called Landie too (not Landy) - I drive to and from Morzine (French Alps) in it every ski season, despite it being a 1196 Tdi 110 . With (now illegal) bench seats in the back it's the perfect vehicle for ferrying skier to/from the lifts. It's not so good for driving 800miles up and...
