PVC hose for 95 Eurovan

[Dfitch]

Hello all,
I just purchased a 95 Eurovan and all is well except for the fact that I can’t find a replacement PCV hose anywhere. The part has been discontinued. My shop replaced the leaking hose with radiator hose but it still idles rough. I’m wondering if members have encounter this problem and, if so, what the fix was. My shop suggested speaking with a hydraulic shop about fashioning something which I will try.

Thanks!

If you have a part number, that would be useful. Many parts have been discontinued but can still be found if you know where to look.

It looks like there is a used one on Ebay:

And possibly a new one from Bus Depot:

Hopefully one of those options works out for you.

Thanks Bill, I am following up the Ebay link even though it’s described as a radiator hose.

I called Bus Depot several days ago to follow up what you saw. They told me they don’t have the part and didn’t know why it was posted ..... yet there it still is, go figure

I really appreciate your efforts, Dan

It's just a hose, go over to home depot may find something that can fit.

I also noticed that these guys have a '95 Eurovan parts van and may still have that hose:

I finally sourced a hose through EBay from a supplier in England. They seem to have a lot of obscure parts I case you are stuck. Their email address is [email protected]
