As I recall (others please chime in if I'm wrong) it takes about 16 feet of
hose to do the job.  You need 7mm hose, specifically the high pressure
injection type.  The proper part number is N20281, I believe.
I just noticed that my local FLAPS is now stocking it.  His e-mail is
mailto:\\parts@t-hoff.com  if you want to e-mail him for a quote.  He also
stocks the special clamps that are used by VW on those hoses.  Beware
though, that the hose is expensive, and so are the clamps.  But it is cheap
insurance in the long run if you can avoid a fire.

Subject: Fuel line size

Hello all,

I am planning on replacing the fuel lines on my 84 westy (1.9).  I hate to
bring this topic up again, but I have searched the archives and can't find
out what size & how much fuel line to purchase.  Are there any other parts I
need to complete this job?

Thanks for the help,
Mike D.
