Default 87 944s brake/fuel line diagrams

Hello,

My son and I just bought a 87 944S that needs all new fuel and brake lines. I've done a search but had no luck in finding diagrams showing both complete systems so we can order the appropriate parts and then
fab the rest ourselves. Is there a PDF or link that shows us these 2 complete systems?

Plan is to use the diagrams to figure out what we can make ourselves, and what we need to order. Thanks.

It would probably help if you were more specific.

Re: the fuel lines...are you talking about the ~2-ft rubber supply/return lines from/to the hard lines that terminate in the passenger fender well? If so, Porsche does not sell those rubber hoses separately. You can either replace with braided lines or fit your own rubber hoses.

Re: the brake lines...are you talking about the ~1-ft rubber lines that run from the hard lines to each caliper? Porsche still sells the OEM rubber brake hoses. Or, you can go to a number of vendors [Paragon, Pelican] for non-OEM replacement parts.

If you are looking for illustrations like this with numerical id and part numbers, they are all in PET and you can find a copy all over the web.

Many 944S' will be abs so there are additional lines compared to run of the mill 944s and they also have a bias valve on the brake master that is specific to the S model.

Good luck,

BTW, where is Hamilton...., where are you..?

I am pulling body panels for spares off an '87 S with engine and trans already gone before I junk it over the next week or so.

I could save a few specific line for you.

Thanks for the responses. We are in Hamilton, Ontario. I wasn't specific in that we are looking to do the flex and hard lines. All are bad due to fun Canadian winters. I've ordered a couple OEM fuel lines from Porsche as they are complicated, the rest we will do ourselves. The illustration above helps, thanks. Guess I was doing the wrong searches. Our 944 is non-abs.

951and944s, let me know if you have some good lines. I have a mailing address in Niagara Falls, NY that I use for parts.
