Does anyone > know the hose size? It is 3/8" ID clear vinyl tubing, available at most decent hardware stores. Unfortunately, the brand-new Rona store near me doesn't fit that criteria - they didn't have it in stock last weekend, so I ended up soaking my old tubing in chlorine based wine bottle cleaner over night. It came out looking and clean. If you find some, you will need 6' for the two pieces from tank to sink, and the tank to vent. (this short piece was the dirtiest on mine). If you replace the piece inside the tank, add another 2' to be safe. The oem clamps are oettinger type single use, so either buy some new ones (size 13), or replace with SS hose clamps. Just about done putting my interior back together myself... first trip this year in 10 days or so! :-) Shawn Wright http://members.shaw.ca/vwdiesels '88 Westy 1.6TD 5 speed '85 Jetta Diesel 1.6NA
