My username is Three5bangers. One of my 5bangers is my bought new Volvo 850 so I'm an old member here. I have two 83 Audis which probably share some CIS stuff with the 7 series Volvos. The nice looking braided CIS hoses from the fuel distributor to the injectors are old enough to make failure a possibility along a horrendous underhood fire. Maybe you Volvo guys are luck and can still get these hoses from the dealer but Audi parts availability is horrendously bad. Does anybody in the US of A have a reputation for custom making these? The furrel ends on mine have heavy rust - even if the 34 year old hose has not been destroyed by ethanol maybe they will just pop off the rusted ends. With all the CIS cars out there somebody must have entered into this replacement part market. Know anybody?
