 |
|
Hi All,
Does anyone know of a source for all the various hoses used on these systems? I have 2 FI type 4 bus engines and all the hoses are in pretty rough shape, or missing completely. I'm talking about the larger hoses for things like the auxiliary air valve, case vent, deceleration valve, and similar. I'm not talking about fuel or small vacuum hoses. |

ratwell has a photo and some part numbers for the fi hoses.
and, i found this:
https://davidplanella.org/vw-type-2-fuel-injection-vacuum-hose-guide/
some are available from the usual sources, and some are not.
there’s a seller on thesamba who makes a set for something like $375.
otherwise, it’s find those you can, buy, used for those you can’t, or figure out work-around.
they’re might be threads on the latter, but i’m unaware of them.
not a lot of help, i know, but……

X2. He is rather gruff when people waste his time. But nicest guy in the world for those who put up the cash. His in not cheap but his stuff lasts.
