    Hi, Anyone know where I can get decent thin walled brake servo hose ? Only type I can find is the really solid thick walled type.
     
  2. I got air hose, which is thick walled. If you just need a bit to go from the carb to pipe at the back let me know I bought a reel of it and have quite a bit left.

    Thank you for the offer .Do you know if it brake servo hose or just standard breather type hose ?
     
  4. Try some Gates GP40. It’s tough, but quite flexible. Other stuff seems to be rock hard. I bought some from the same place I got my remote servo from (can’t remember the name). It’s 10mm ID.

  5. Neither it's air hose, as in compressor hose. Fits perfik and is rated to about 35 mega tons of pressure.
     
  6. I thought it was 12mm ?
     
  7. silicone hose is suitable for vac . too thin and it will collaspe

  8. ^this. Unless it's the 4-ply reinforced stuff, silicone will likely collapse.
     
  9. 10mm is fine. It’s not a continous flow. The barbs on my servo are 8mm ID.

    Thank you everyone , I have now managed to sort the hose but could really use the rear plastic one that goes inbetween the metal fixed servo pipe and the rear hose (that goes to the manifold) it also joins to the one way valve (which I have ). Is this plastic one still available ? Probably not but i thought I would ask. I can get a photo if required.Thanks
