I did add a fire extinguisher to my 84 5000

Like the old American Express card commercials: "Don't leave home without it" never again will I drive an older car without a fire extinguisher ...

        You can get lengths of hard lines from the dealer, you'll have to flare them yourself.   -  serf2k  2018-03-15 14:02:48 (345 views)

        The plastic line was like new. I didn't have to mess with it.  -  Randolph  2018-03-17 13:50:24 (344 views)
        
        I'm checking part numbers for the lines   -  x Audi Quattro x  2018-03-18 11:57:33 (336 views)
        
        Part # for the lines is 443 201 544 D   -  Randolph  2018-03-19 14:24:12 (273 views)
        
        The 84 is calling for 443 201 544 A --- then goes to letter E after VIN G  -  x Audi Quattro x  2018-03-20 10:17:18 (291 views)
        
        Oh ok. For some reason I thought this was an 87 as well.   -  Randolph  2018-03-20 12:23:20 (294 views)
        
        I was looking for fuel lines and found a post from AudiWorld with a post you answered ..Do you  -  x Audi Quattro x  2018-03-20 12:59:38 (467 views)
        
        No, I regret selling it.  -  Randolph  2018-03-20 14:14:43 (312 views)
        
        I always wanted a 928 -- I have plenty of practice keeping the 5000 running  -  x Audi Quattro x  2018-03-20 18:57:14 (323 views)
        
        No, NOS lines are delivered in a coil. Use old lines as a bending template.   -  serf2k  2018-03-16 12:44:56 (339 views)
        
        Mine from the dealer came straight..  -  TyloPuP.. katMAN  2018-03-16 15:09:19 (402 views)
        
        Ah, you are correct. Fuel lines are provided as a part...it's the brake lines that are coiled....  -  serf2k  2018-03-16 17:14:54 (344 views)
