[Vwdiesel] 1982 diesel caddy fuel breather hose

[Andrew .Libby]

I've been using clear Tygon for all my fuel hose for several years and it
is excellent.  Much better than any of the stock hoses and clear so any air
infiltration is easily diagnosed.  McMaster-Carr has an excellent selection
of sizes and wall thicknesses.  I use the c-210-a formulation which is also
rated for biodiesel.
