Default V8 Vacuum Advance Pipe

I need to replace the Red and Green vacuum advance pipes on one of the V8's. Trouble is, I can't find any replacement pipe of the correct diameter which is approximately 4mm outside diameter.


All the advertised silicon pipe I can find has 4mm inside diameter, making the OD too large for the rubber unions.


Anyone know of a source?


Thanks,

Thank you Trikey. I searched for PCL and they listed nylon hose, but not in green or red. However, once I googled nylon hose I got it .

Trouble was before I'd been searching for vacuum hose, and kept getting silicon hose with too large an OD.

Appreciate your help - another problem solved >

Cool, are you going to enlighten us with a supplier?
