Can you take a look at this thread please so save any cross purposes.
I did also notice your part number differs to mine. Is yours a late spec 190 ?

Hi Lates,i may be wrong,but im sure the pep000200 is the whole job lot complete with the rubber pipes/clips etc and the pfv000090 just the offending steel pipes that everyone seems to require?

Hi, I'm not sure how to check the spec. How can I tell? It was registered July 2002 if that helps at all.

Still no response from my uncle I'm afraid so I'm thinking he's not up for making a load of these

I will nag him again though and see if I can convince him as so many people seem to be needing these pipes (and more to come I reckon!!)

The two sets are completely different. One is a 17mm ( ish ) bore and one is probably nearer to 22mm.

The smaller bore pipes are both L shaped whereas the larger bore pipes are more bent / curved.

I have a large bore set at home to be boxed up (somehow) and sent out hopefully this week.

Ah ok... well mine are the smaller ones then. Unfortunately the mechanic kept/chucked the old set so I don't have them for reference any more.

The smaller ones are ( should ) be easier to replicate.

Come on you guys, get your act together.
Big failure point on your models, easy to fabricate, get a pattern off to somebody (even an uncle), and get 20 made. Club to buy and sell on to MEMBERS.
Problem solved.

Would it be naive of me to think that copper tubing comes in 15mm and 22mm and is relatively easy to bend

I understand that 22mm has been tried..albeit in stainless...and works perfectly...
