1956–1977 Braided Carburetor Fuel Hose 2 Meters N203551 - OEM Number(s) (N203551)
Protect your Volkswagen engine bay with this German braided carburetor fuel hose delivering correct factory sizing, safe leak resistance, and authentic period-correct appearance.
The fuel hose on a carbureted Volkswagen carries one of the most critical jobs under the decklid — and the correct hose makes the difference between a safe, sealed fuel system and one that seeps, cracks, or fails prematurely. This German cloth-wrapped rubber fuel hose is engineered to factory specifications for carbureted VW engines and matches the braided texture and sizing used on original Volkswagens from the factory.
At a full 2 meters in length there is enough hose for a clean routing job with extra for future service. The 5mm inside diameter and 9.5mm outside diameter are correct for carbureted applications — fuel injected models require a 7mm fuel line and this hose is not correct for those applications. Made in Germany.
