Original is 4mm but you can use 3mm with no issues and from my searching and forge 3mm can be better. I'm using 3mm now and it's fine

looks like I'll be getting some 3mm ID hose then

only problem I found was getting it over the top of the DV. I'll order a metre 2nite so I've got some spare

I ordered 3m and probable still have 1m left, but always good to have some spare  :wink:
