Known issues on the 1987 924. One recall is on federal record for this model year, covering the high-pressure fuel line hose between the fuel rail and fuel pressure regulator: the hose material is prone to hardening, which can allow fuel to leak onto the hot exhaust or another ignition source and start an engine compartment fire. Owners have filed 2 complaints for the year, and no technical service bulletins are logged. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind that fuel system are here.
Whether you're inspecting the high-pressure fuel line for hardening or working through a routine service interval, it keeps you on the OEM procedure for your specific 1987 924.
THE HOSE MATERIAL USED IN THE SHORT SECTION OF THE HIGH PRESSURE FUEL LINE HOSE, BETWEEN THE FUEL RAIL AND FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR, IS SUBJECT TO HARDENING, AND COULD CAUSE FUEL LEAKS BETWEEN THE HOSE
FUEL LEAKS COULD IGNITE ON THE HOT EXHAUST SYSTEM, OR ANY OTHER SOURCE OF IGNITION, RESULTING IN AN
REPLACE FUEL LINE HOSE WITH HOSES MADE OF IMPROVED MATERIAL.
