Volkswagen: Radiator Hoses, radiator hoses, vw passat


Question
Hi John,

I have a 1992 VW Passat Syncro with a 4 cylinder supercharged G-60 engine.  My heater core just went recently and until I can afford to fix it I have to use a Flush T to reroute and connect the two houses that run to the heater core.

My question is where can I find these hoses and will they be easy enough to get to?  Thanks for taking the time to answer my question.

Answer
the two hoses you need to join together go through the bulkhead behind the engine, near the centre of the car. the hoses are generally a couple of inches apart. never having worked on a g60 engined passat, i'm not sure on the accessibility of the hoses, but should not be too bad.
