Full Version: Oil filler - breather hose. Size ?

I can’t seem to find the proper braded type hose that goes between the oil breather and the EGR valve pipe. I’m currently using thick wall red “radiator” water hose (pictured below - next post). barf.gif
The tech page at Pelican shows it 22mm but describes it 21mm. One may be ID and the other OD. Either way, can’t find anything above 17mm listed in their parts section. Anyone know a vendor, part number, or size?

Also, non-smog control cars appear to have a formed hose that bypasses the metal pipe & EGR valve set up. Is that part still available? If so, any problems with just removing the EGR valve and pipe set up? I rarely drive it so I don’t feel too guilty about the smog thing. Either way, since more and more parts are NLA, wouldn’t be a bad idea to buy one and keep it in a plastic bag for the future.

I'm not sure of the size, but I am pretty sure that radiator hose will break down when exposed to oil. The PO put some on my car and it didn't last long. Have you tried any VW shops?

Try Stoddard Imported Cars. They do not carry a lot of stuff for 914's but they do carry alot of braided hoses/lines for other Porsche models.
