Looking for rubber fuel return hose
I need the rubber return hose for the injection system...the one that goes from the engine to the firewall on the passenger's side of the vehicle.
Anybody have one? I was able to locate the pressure hose but the return hose has been discontiinued by Porsche. I swear they want me to drive a Boxster...
Car is an 81 L-Jetronic.

Take 'em both to a hose shop and have them redo the old hoses. (They cut off the ends and recrimp new hose on them. Get some SS braided Teflon lined, looks cool!)
Not very expensive.
Or carefully cut the crimped sections off yourself and hose clamp some fuel injection hose over the factory (barbed under the crimp) ends.
Cheap.

Already did that, but don't trust it. The factory hoses are better because there is a tough inner lining.
Remember, I have a turbocharged manifold just 5" from the pressure hose.
