Subject:      PN question ("step down" hose from pump to filter)
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1


Hi all.


Not sure if this is an "improvement" but.....


In searching for a way to use a Bosch metal "can" type fuel filter on
my '81 Westy (PN: 0 450 905 030) my parts guy found a piece of molded
fuel hose to serve as a "step down" for transition from the larger
fuel pump OD to this (and possibly better??) fuel filter


Molded hose PN: 251 201 534 A


ETKA showed dimensions of 12.5 mm and 8 mm.


Has anyone used this in conjunction with the larger metal "can" type
fuel filters?


I have the metal filter already. Is this type of filter any better
than the stock square Vanagon filter?


Thanks,


Neil.
