Subject:      Diesel Coolant Hoses
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

Hi All,

There's a special short hose that goes to the head of
my 82 Westy diesel.  The Bentley shows it real well,
but VW doesn't have a clue to what it is.  Near as I
can tell it isn't shown on the nice coolant hose
diagram Bus Depot has on the web.  The original hose
had one end (head end) larger than the other which
went through a hose barb coupler to the heater hose
for the long trip to the front of the van.  The PO
took the heater hose and stretched it to fit the head
connection, and it looks like it might be getting
ready to go at that connection.  Anyone know if the
original part can still be obtained?

Any good places for these unusual shaped hoses?  Some
of them are like works of art, but I noticed most
places price them accordingly.  Also, is this the
best/only message board for diesel information?
Thanks.

Rob
