VDO has an extension hose for this purpose. I have used it for about 4 years with no problems. Good VW parts places should stock it, or at least be able to order it. If you get desparate, call Vee Parts in San Diego at 619-477-4787 and ask them if they will mail it to you. I think it runs around $15-20. -David ============================================================================ David Schwarze '73 VW Safare Custom Camper (Da Boat) Dallas, Texas, USA '73 Capri GT 2800 (Da Beast) e-mail: ddes@anet-dfw.com '87 Mustang Lx 5.0 (13.986@100.81) http://www.teleport.com/~des '93 Weber WG-50 (Da Piano) ============================================================================
