Dumb question, ID/OD of original black rubber w-washer hose

#1 Post by Joris Koning »

Hope somebody can help. In order to register cars over here the windshield washer system needs to work. I would like to order some correct sized black rubber hose. Does anybody out there have the sizing for me.

Thanks,

Joris

Good timing for the question. I am working with the same thing.

Was the tubing black for all years and did it have the same specifications?

Is there a Porsche part number in the system? Perhaps for a later model or two?

Original tubing was black in 1953. I can measure it for you.

I see there is both clear and black tubing on the Stoddard website. Which belongs in a '62?

I might be able to get you some of the little screen that was at the end of the hose in the bag, if that's the one you're talking about....(a rudimentary filter)

Jim, thanks for the offer. I probably need it- don't know enough to say if it came on my car. I was following up on whether the tube is clear or black for a '62, if the year matters.
