Octopus part number

Post by KevR »

Hi all,
There's a NOS BX octopus pipe on a small ads site here, seller says, 'for all models'. Part number (it's original Citroen) is 95638836.
Can anyone confirm/deny that this will fit a 90/91 TZD?

Thanks Malcolm, much appreciated.
This one is 40 euros so I think I'll probably have it to put in stock.

Bx Octopus

Hi Malcolm.

Please can you tell me what "Faisretour 96030258" is? I originally bought it thinking it was a return octopus for a TZD.
Thanks Jeff

well, retour means return and fais is a particible of the verb to do.

Citroen refer to the octopus as the oil back harness so retour/return sort of fits that!

At any rate, one for 40 Euros is a bargain!
