 |
|
I searched before I am posting this. I may have searched wrong but I am hoping for one of the syncro guru's to help out.
I am saving up to get the coolant hose kit for the syncro from Van Cafe. (rich in time, not money. It'll take a few weeks) but I notice there are about 5 hoses NLA.
http://www.van-cafe.com/home/van/page_194_1141/syncro_coolant_hose_kit_1986_1991.html
I looked at several of the links that were posted in other posts and just couldn't find those hoses. I want to just replace them all at once and not have to do it several times. Are there any solutions for the hoses that are NLA? the hoses would be:
251.121.102
251.121.103
251.121.108H
251.121.072
251.121.073
I would rather not fabricate some. Thanks in advance. These are all steps in getting my syncro out of town and enjoying it for what it is made for.
any links or suggestions would be great. One day I do hope to post info to help in the vanagon site, instead of always asking for help. watercooled is a new learning experience.

I make all NLA hoses from silicone hoses readily available at speed shops.
Sometimes an angle, coupler and straight hose must be used.
I have all the NLA hoses as spares and templates.
Just copy what you have. |

I don't know if you still need those hoses, but in case others are searching the threads, I found the following new kit from Van-Cafe that has all five houses you list.
Syncro Silicone Hose 5 piece Kit
VC.SYNMINISILCONKIT
5 piece silicone hose kit. This kit includes all of the now obsolete hoses that the dealer used to have that we now have reproduced in silicone:
251.121.102
251.121.103
025.121.108H
251.121.072
251.121.073
