Description

1963-1979 Heater Pre-Heat Hose 50mm x 1m 028129087A - OEM Number(s) (028-129-087-A)

A small hose with a big job—this flexible aluminum heater hose keeps your Air-Cooled VW engine running cool and your cabin warm. Measuring 50mm x 1 meter (2" x 36"), it connects the fan shroud to the muffler heater boxes or serves as the carburetor pre-heat hose on later engines. Cracked, missing, or clogged hoses can lead to engine overheating, poor fuel mileage, and ignition timing issues. Replace yours before it costs you a rebuild.

Features
• Fits 1963–1979 Beetle (Standard & Super), Bus, Ghia, and Thing
• Replaces VW part number 028-129-087A
• Measures 50mm inside diameter x 1 meter (36") extended length
• Made from flexible corrugated aluminum
• Connects fan shroud to heater boxes or used for carb pre-heat (1968+)
• Can be cut in half to supply both sides of engine
• Easy to trim—use a sharp utility knife and side cutters

Tech Note
Your fan shroud pushes fresh cooling air through these hoses into the heating system. If they’re leaking or missing, your cooling volume drops—and that means dangerous overheating. Always run fresh, sealed hoses to protect your heads and cylinders from heat stress.

Because Details Matter
This isn’t just a heater hose—it’s a line of defense against premature engine wear. Keep your air-cooled VW breathing right and warming strong with this simple but essential upgrade.
