Smile (Seeking Advice) 924S Fuel line Replacement

Hi All-

Seems my fuel line has a nick in it, causing fuel to seep through. I would like to order a replacement part for that hose. However, I have been unsuccessful finding one online. Does anyone know what this piece is referred to as, and where I can source one?

Refer to the photo below, the hose needed has been circled.

Any help would be truly appreciated.

You can carefully cut the crimp sleeves to release the hose from the barbed ends of the fittings, remove the rest of the crimp sleeves, then use Gates Barricade SAE 30R9 hose (I think that is the 5/16" or 3/8" size) and fuel injection hose clamps. Good as new. Here is a video of the process, which is much easier on your line because you can totally remove it from the car to work on it.:

Probably Lindsey racing or Pelican Parts has one. Pelican has a parts breakdown on their site. You can get the part number from there.

It’s part number 944-356-041-14

The Porsche dealers who sell online like Sunset, Sonnen, etc are all cheaper than any of the aftermarket suppliers like Pelican.

I replaced all my fuel lines back there on my 924S, and Sunset is where I got them.

You may want consider replacing the line on the other side of the filter to the hard line on the D.S. as well, but access is kind of a pain. It took an odd combination of tools I don't e ven remember...Had to break apart (and replace) one of these plastic fuel line retainers, too. A lot of work, but peace of mind as well knowing everything is new.
