I did a little research at my local NAPA store, and found a 60 mm x 1000mm, black, paper/foil/paper, hose that's very close to OEM. NAPA part number is 813-1374 "Carburator Preheater Hose". $8 and change. They don't have one long enough to go from the fan to the passenger side, but it's not too hard to connect two together. $25 for three is probably cheaper than most vendors sell one for.

Thanks for the info. It is nice to save a little and to also find things locally. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) |

"Very close to OEM"? How can paper/foil be very close to plastic in look? The Cap'n |

I have found perfect replacements at the local Bug Shop. Passenger side to fan need to be joined, but Inside diameter is perfect. Gary (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif) |

Sorry Cap'n, I meant to say it looks like the 914-6/911 black paper hose.
