21 928 356 057 00 fuel line
22 928 356 029 10 fuel line to engine compartment
23 928 356 031 05 fuel line return line to tank

I make a replacement #20 flexible line. Roger at 928-R-US or 928 International sells my flexible lines.

Not sure if Porsche still has the steel lines...they very seldom get replaced. If not, you might be able to get 928 International to remove a set of the steel lines, from a car they are taking apart.

Greg - thanks for the prompt response. I'll get with Roger....
With my car being a southern Cali car, I may not need to replace the two steel lines. I was able to price them on Pelican.

Man..I cant imagine the huge cost & hassle to assemble a 928 in Afghanistan.

I dont base my worldview via the media, but what we do get to see of Kabul..wouldn't have me restoring a nice car there.

You will find Roger and Mark at 928int to be fantastic resources for your work.

I replaced the pressure delivery pipe on my 83 a few years ago, with some difficulty, but gave up on the return line. The return is laced between the body and the upper suspension mounts, and since the car was only on stands, there was no way that pipe could be fitted with the clearance available. The delivery line was almost as bad, except the problem was at the front - no way I could lace the rear in through the wheel arch (from the accumulator), and get the forward end up into the engine bay. In the end I cut the pipe ~8" back from the upward bend, fitted the rear end of the pipe onto the body, fitted the engine connecting hose to the front piece of pipe, then joined the pipe with a compression fitting. No issues several years later. I also found the crimp of the short return hose to the return pipe was very slack - pulled off easily by hand - this is best replaced with the tank out!
At the time both steel pipes were available ex Germany, but it took 2 tries to deliver them both intact - one was kinked first time.

You have got to be the only 928 owner in Kabul. I would love to hear more about your car project. Forgive me for asking, is it safe to drive a 928 there? Does your username have anything do with being a Nebraska Cornhusker fan?

You can have braided stainless teflon-lined hoses made much cheaper, I think. There have been a couple threads on this. I myself have swapped out the feed line for technical reasons. Also the braided lines are coilable, which will be much easier to ship, no matter where they are going.
