Samco hose kit

[Ditlev]

I'm looking for a complete Samco hose kit for my Q4, and also a place to buy it. I would like kits to both Turbo and Coolant.

Anybody know where to get such? Or which kit for the Delta Integrale that will fit?

Any help would be much appreciated .. :)

Far as I know it is not possible to buy one for a Q4, also don't think much (if any) of the Fait/Lancia hoses fit...sorry :(

There is no kit from Samco available :cry:
I would like one also. I've been informing in the Netherlands for making those hoses, butt that is way to expensive...... :eek:

How sad.. :/

What do you suggest to do then? Or should I just keep the original?

So true ...

Ik think you should customize your own. At least, that is what i willl do when hoses are gone and needs replacement. Most hoses aren't available anymore or will get the status very soon. :tapedshut:
I have some ideas, don't know if it is posible. When the time is ready, i'll post pictures of what i had in mind. (may take a while :redface: )

Well, I guess that is what I have to do then.. :)

I am needing some hoses, if anyone finds some fitted to other cars please share the information :smoke:

But...I think some will have to be specially made, when I have time I plan to take the water reservoir pipe and water pipe from under the inlet plenum, to a silicon pipe maker!

Other water pipes will probably be needed eventually but might be easier to find...

I'm also looking for the top breather hose now, mine is cracked :mad:

Hello,
had the same problem last summer, the waterhose under the inletmanifold from WP to Thermostat couldt be replaced by a siliconhose from Lancia delta, i bought this from Bielstein; lacia parts www.bielstein.com

Regards Michael

for the other hoses I think you have to ask them

[wrinx]

Which one do you mean...number 10 in the first picture?

Number 8 in this picture caused some problems, had to fabricate some metal elbows! But would really like to replace with silicon, it fastens to number 10 above.

hello wrinx,
yes #10 ,first pic, the one Bielstein delivers is silicone made with the small conector made of solid aluminium, fits quite well , but a mess to change it with engine in the vehihle, I removed the throttelbody to get access to the hose.

I have changed #10 in the first pic in my car too, and actually I made a hose from a Fiat Punto fit :D

The punto hose had a separate connector, where you could mount a hose on each side. Worked (and still works) quite well, and the connector won't be an issue, only the hoses.. :)

Do you have a part number?

[wrinx]

Interesting...I made my own (see pics - host not available!) but would rather have a proper part!

Groan...now I need number 24 as mine is split!

Should be ok with this as it's shared with the Fiat Coupe....

24 looks very suspect on mine too...

[wrinx]

I think a standard Samco 16mmx102mm 90deg elbow (cut down) will do the job...just need to check the size (edit: steel pipe is 16mm).

I split three hoses trying to get the 'stat off!!! Thankfully only this one is a preformed part.
