Default Vacuum hose size

Hay guys so one of my vacuum hose's are on the way out pritty perished all over so needs replacing iv measured the original and its got a 3.5 inside diameter been looking around and all I can find is 3 and 4mm diameters.

Have found some 3.5 but will need to come over from the USA

Was just wondering would 3mm diameter be oki to use or am I better off get some sent over

By the way looking for red silicon

How much do you need and what parts does it connect?
I have just replaced a load of recently, it's lying about in the Bat Cave, it's red and spare as a camel in the desert if you want it.

3mm is OK as it stretches.

Its from the waste gate to the T junction for the boost solonoide

Dont mind paying for it, in that link you sent would you recomend the 3mm or the 4mm as there is no 3.5 like the standard

Mark,


Get the 3mm and the seal will be good . Do you have the small spring clips on the ends?

You will be fine but get some zip ties for the best seal.
