Title: WTB - Fuel hose for mk1 TD
Post by: red64chevelle on March 12, 2009, 06:45:05 am

I am looking for the clear plastic line with fittings on each end for a 84 Jetta TD.  It goes from the fuel filter to the injection pump.  Its NLA from the dealer, only the NA version is left.

If I can't find one, I may just cut-up and and make one from an old NA one I have around here.

If you look around you can find that clear tubing, it's available. Try a plastic pipe place or a good hardware store. All you have to do is cut the old tubing off the banjo fittings and put the new stuff on. I couldn't find any to use on my Mk1 TD so I got some 1/4" air brake hose and that worked fine, but it was black not clear so I couldn't see if there was air in the line. That was the only drawback.

Crap, I should pay more attention next time.  I just got my order in, but its the smaller vent hose.  Guess I am doing another order.
