RobSheffield Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Im worried by the 'hose aint cheap' comment. Proper vacuum hose isnt cheap, dont scrimp on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobSheffield Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Silicone isnt always the best unless its reinforced. Samco is fairly expensive. Perhaps go to Toyota and buy the precut lengths there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 The problem i found with silicone hose, is that when it gets hot it collapses. If you get the reinforced stuff you should be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
