Vacuum pipe

Recommended Posts

I have a 1992 corrado g60. It has a slight misfire/flat spots under load. The car has been serviced, charger rebuilt etc, including plugs, leads, dizzy cap, rotor, oil, oil filter, air filter. After having a look around i noticed that the vacuum pipe from the fuel pressure regulator to the throttle body was perished. I called vw who said it is only available in 5M rolls. Does anyone know where to get this pipe from other than vw? Im in the north-east, cheers in advance.

They should be able to sell you 1 metre tho off the roll - it's 3.5mm ID pipe but i'd buy the proper stuff... I'd also replace the 1m pipe between the TB and ECU as this is critical for engine management

Thanks for the quick reply. Ill try vw again then but i wont be suprised if they will only sell the full roll to me :(. Is the TB to ECU pipe exactly the same as this pipe im talking about then?, cheers.

They should sell you as little as you need...they have rolls of it in the parts department.....there just being awkward :nono: . make sure the vacuum pipe from throttle body to fuel pressure regulator is exactly 100mm long...Just as important as the 1 metre ecu pipe...also use the 2 correct clips for tb to fpr pipe (N 024 399 2)
