I've had success with buying hose from Parker Hose and
Fittings.  I cut the old hose and crimps off and take the
old fittings and new hose to a local diesel injection
service and have the new hose crimped onto the old fittings.
You can specify that you want the R134 barrier type hose
when you order, thus your system will be ready for the new
refrigerant.  If you are going through this much trouble,
you might as well replace the high pressure hoses too.  The
corporate web site for parker is www.parker.com to find a
distributor in your area.

---Dear fellow friends/drivers of our beloved Vanagon
commuters.

I am in need of the low pressure hose from the compressor
onwards. Mine has developed a small pin hole where it joins
at the fitting at the compressor. It is right at the top
where you can see it plain as day.

I can't find a place to make a A/C hose at VW well, they are
out of sight. Does anyone have a hose or can steer me in the
right direction to get one made?

Please help.

Thanx-

Chris
