The N 901 666 01 hose that is one of the two main radiator hoses for the
1.9l Vanagon with metal coolant pipes underneath is No Longer Available
as of this month.  I still have a few on the shelf but when they are
gone, I am going to have to look for another source (Non-VW).  Also I
found that one of the long metal pipes that runs the length of the van
is also NLA.  I ordered both for a customer last month and they wound up
sending me just one and then saying, "Oops, didn't we tell you that the
other one is discontinued?"  I had to order a set of the plastic pipes
which I could get and then used the four newer style hoses to connect
them.  Just FYI.

I would suggest you replace your coolant hoses now while we can still
get hoses, but every time I do that I get four or five emails telling me
why that isn't such a good idea (because German hoses last for 20 years
and longer, because they said so, etc., etc.).  So I am not suggesting
it.  Have a great day!

Thanks,
