Fuel Pipe Connector.
The Porsche Fuel Pipe Connector is a genuine OEM connecting piece designed for the fuel delivery system in classic Porsche models, including the 924 and 944. This small but vital component links sections of fuel pipe or hose, ensuring a secure and leak-free connection within the fuel system.
Over time, connectors can weaken, corrode, or crack, leading to fuel leaks and loss of pressure. Replacing it with this OEM Porsche connector restores system integrity, prevents dangerous leaks, and ensures your engine receives the correct fuel pressure for smooth performance.

What This Product Does:
It’s a small but essential connector in the fuel feed / fuel line system. It joins sections of fuel pipe or hose — often between the fuel pump, fuel filter, accumulator, or between pipe and hose segments.
Symptoms Of A Faulty Or Failing Fuel Pipe Connector:
If this connector is worn, damaged, or leaking, common symptoms will include:
- Fuel smell around the engine bay or under the car, especially near where this connector is installed.
- Liquid fuel leaks visible around the connector or dripping when the engine is running / fuel system is pressurized.
- Poor fuel pressure, which can lead to rough running, hesitation, or weak acceleration.
- Possibly difficulty starting if fuel supply is compromised.
- Visible damage or corrosion to the connector — cracked plastic or metal, worn threads, or loose hose / pipe connections.
Why Replacement Matters:
Even though it’s a small part, it’s critical:
- Fuel delivery depends on all connectors and lines being sealed and strong. A faulty connector can compromise the whole fuel feed.
- Leaks are dangerous (fire risk) and waste fuel.
- Loss of pressure or leaks can lead to poor engine performance, misfires, or engine stalling.
- Using a genuine part like this one ensures correct fit, strength, sealing finish, and avoids fitment mismatches or leaks.
