--------------------- Hi Volks, On 2wd 86 - 91 one of these hoses go from the oil cooler 5/8 to a 3/8 metal pipe and then from 3/8 back to 5/8 and on to the thermostat housing. A 5/8 heater hose 2-3 feet long replaces 2 of these expensive hoses. For more on hoses check out http://unix1.thelambgroup.com/~tboehler/VW/ Darrell
