Compare the cross section hose at your local parts store. The stuff that's
FI rates has a lot more braid reinforcing & it will be obvious once you
compare to the two.

Hi all.

Starting a fuel filter "upgrade" (to metal canister type). But before
I cut stuff.....

Have "new" hose that was safely stored under bench seat for a couple years.

No markings, saying fuel injected rated. I suspect it is as it looks
reinforced but....

Says:

"7x3  KDK  2/33/02  VRT  VW  TL  52255  E"

Google didn't reveal anything using that alpha numeric schtuff.

Anyone know for sure if fuel injected rated?

Thanks!

Neil.
