Hey guys, to anyone that has ordered new fuel lines and vacuum lines for a 2.0L, can you help me with what I should order? basically just lay out what lengths and what id's i need. Ive seen the one diagram on that one site (real descriptive i know (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ) but it confused me...
ive heard of a vacuum line kit, which i could order, but the only one ive found was on ebay and wasnt sure if it would work for a 2.0L (links?) ive seen that automotion has the fuel lines so i will prolly be ordering from them (unless someone has em cheaper) as well as intake gaskets and valve cover gaskets. so can ya help? just the lines in the engine compartment, not up front at fuel pump or anything, just the fuel lines in the engine compartment, and if no vacuum line kit, lengths and ids for those as well (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) thanks so much |

Dave Darling did a nice fuel line layout with hose sizes, but not lengths.
http://www.pelicanparts.com/914/technical_...4_20FI_diag.htm As far as a vacuum line kit, I've had excellent luck with the AutoAtlanta kit. I think they sell the kit in both generic color and original colors - all lines pre-cut for you. If you're looking for originality, it's the only way to go. |

Try a VW shop if you want to save a few bucks. You might be able to
get some from NAPA. It will be standard size, so I'm not sure what sizes will fit so bring a sample of each hose size with you to match. |
