If my memory serves me this hose is 22mm (7/8") at the head. A number of
VW's used this size connection but it will be a challenge at a FLAPS. You
may have to be creative here.

Subject: Happy Holidays to all, and to all a question about hoses

Hi all - hoping everyone is having a great holiday.  I have a coolant leak
issue today that I hope I have solved, but in case i didn't, I will need to
find at a FLAPS, a hose to fit the heater feed outlet at the head  of my 82
naturally aspirated 1.6.  Ideally, this hose would fit the outlet at the
head, then change to standard 5/8" heater hose, and be about two feet long
so it will reach the splice over the tranny, where I installed new heater
hose but left the old feed line at the head.

Anyone know a good part for this, or know what the hose size should be at
that end?  Search of the archives revealed similar questions, but no
answers.

MCAHNY!
