914Rubber 880mm Fuel Tank Overflow Hose for Porsche 914 (1970-73)
Maintain your Porsche 914’s fuel system integrity with the 914Rubber 880mm Fuel Tank Overflow Hose (part number 999.181.145.40), designed for 914 models from 1970-73 with 1.7L or 2.0L engines. This reproduction vinyl hose, thermally molded to match the original factory shape, manages excess fuel vapor and overflow from the fuel tank, preventing pressure buildup and potential leaks. Only one hose is required per car, ensuring proper venting for the 914’s gravity-fed fuel system.
PMB Performance, with over 20 years of Porsche 914 expertise, has partnered with 914Rubber for nearly two decades, selling more 914Rubber SKUs than any other retailer. This hose is crafted from high-quality, fuel-resistant vinyl, capable of withstanding ethanol-blended fuels and the 914’s engine bay heat, which can reach 180°F near the tank. Unlike brittle factory hoses prone to cracking after decades, this 880mm hose maintains flexibility and durability, ensuring a secure fit through the tank’s routing path.
The overflow hose plays a critical role in the 914’s fuel tank ventilation, directing vapors to the charcoal canister or vent line. A deteriorated hose can cause vapor lock, fuel odors, or even tank overpressure, risking damage to the fuel filler neck or seals. This 914Rubber hose is pre-formed for easy installation, matching the factory’s bends to avoid kinks that could restrict flow. Regular replacement during tank maintenance prevents costly fuel system issues.
