Order Details - new 914 plumbing
Hi all -
working on a 73 914 1.7L FI project that needs all new vacuum tubing and gas lines - does anyone have the order quantities for the various tubing sizes I'll need? just checking - i can guess but I'm sure that someone has already been down this road once or twice before me. thanks in advance td Last edited by tadink; 08-23-2011 at 09:46 AM..

A competitor to our host, located in Atlanta, sells vacumn and fuel line kits. You can also get stainless gas lines for the tunnel from Tangerine Racing (chris foley).

I used new stainless tunnel lines from Tangerine, about six months ago, on my '74 1.8. Excellent product! I had already made new supply and return lines, from steel lines bought at Auto Zone, to go under the battery in the engine compartment. If I had known about TR a little sooner I would have bought all the hard lines from them.
For hoses, I took my car apart, measured the old hoses and then ordered new replacement hoses in bulk. I used original braided hose outside the engine compartment, and high pressure hose in the engine compartment. Stick with, if possible, metric sized hose (5mm, 7.5mm, 12mm, etc.). The vacuum and charcoal cannister hoses also must be ordered on an as needed basis, not all components are in the same place on all 914s. You will also need hose clamps for every fuel hose/line connection (use band-type Euro/Norma brand clamps...NOT mini radiator style clamps). And you definitely want to check... http://www.914world.com/bbs2/index.php?showtopic=108524
