silicone hose - EVAP to TIP
« on: 08 May 2013, 23:52 »
I need to replace a pipe running from the EVAP hardline to TIP but can't get fuel hoses until Monday.

Would a regular silicone/vaccum hose handle fuel vapour as a quick fix for a few days?

You mean to the charcoal canister?
If so just rip it all out my friend and plug the tip end and the TB end.
