    Chris, you do not want the OEM hose.  It has  failed and will fail again.
 It's made from a too soft material that  eventually collapses when hot.  I
use 3/4" red multi purpose hose from  NAPA.  It will not collapse when hot.

That's  it. I want to put a new hose on it. Right now I am using a
piece of red  heater hose.

By the way, I forgot to mention this is an '87 Wolfburg  edition Van.

Any one know the part number for the  hose?
