Vacuum Pipe
« on: 12 July 2005, 16:34 »
Hi all,

Does any know where I can get a couple of meters length of vacuum pipe, like the type of tubing on a mk2 digifant from the inlet manifold to the airbox?

I am trying to repair some of the pipes on my golf and plumb in a boost gauge on my fiesta, and I think I should be able to use the same type of tubing for both.

Any ideas welcome. :cool:

Cheers

are you talking about the thin stuff thats about as thick as your little finger?

i got a decent sized length (mayb 2m?) over the parts counter at VW for about 6 quid

it was material braided on the outside too..

The thin stuff, yep. if I can get it over the counter @ VW that should solve it.

Thanks

i believe they'll cut to whatever length you need.
