I need hose
« on: 18 April 2011, 17:37 »
Im running a catch tank in the G60 and the fumes from the breather on the catch tank are slowly killing me so i want to relocate the breather further down possibly near wheel arch before i die.

I need hose but it doesnt have to be posh Samco stuff as it does not have to cope with pressure, just simply fumes breathing from the catch, the mm diameter is similar to a garden hose, possibly slightly bigger, although only has to be a roughly 2mm thick.

Any ideas where to purchase such hose from?

Cheers

Thanks but not the stuff im after, ive already got loads of sfs hose in my bay, just need 1-2mm thick hose/pipe to redirect fumes.

Any one else with a catch tank have the same issue?

Why not just use SAMCO or similar? It's fit for purpose.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Halfrouds do actually do pipe! I used some laster year for the catch tank on the R5 gtt.
Only costs a couple of quid and they kept in the back last time!
Worth a shot.

or try this guy
