1.9 Petrol Bottom Hose

[Tim Leech]

The gt's bottom hose is spilt at one end and is dripping water, anyone know if new ones are available please?

Thanks

Is it 95610899? This is the part no for the 1.9 carb according to service.citroen..

Seems to be a Gates version here:

Hoses are getting a common issue and will get rarer - maybe we should make a list of the most common ones to go or be needed and check availability? A group buy on remade silicone ones could be a good way forward for the unobtanium ones...

I think I may have one here. can you post dimensions and Ill check it is the right thing.

IIRC, it came off a GTI, so may well be the same part.

Thanks mike, im aiming to buy a new one if possible.

if its gone right against the pipe clamp at the engine end ( usual place as it gets doused in oil ) before the oil continues down to the lower engine mount ,

then you can usually cut it back and re/fit once,

No luck from my local factors or GSF, Citroen think they can get me one, its £40 but the original lasted 27 years.....

IF it is O/E part # 95610899 (and as per your Gates cat. link also states its also O/E part #95610898) therefore the actual hose should be identical/compatible !

There available from 'AEP DIRECT' which are more than likely to be O/E and much cheaper too (£24.14 delivered to you door ) !

Whats wrong with a second hand one?
You can check if they are good by inspection, and a new old stock will probably be as old as the second hand one.
