Changing pipes

[Kris6383]

I'm looking to change all/ most of the pipes in the engine bay, what size do I need?ie pipes coming off the tip, as a start, has anybody got a layout labelled diagram or something with the correct diameters I need to achieve this. Many thanks and sorry for daft questions

If you buy the pipes/hoses from the dealership you wont need to know the sizes. They will be a direct fit.

I'm replacing with silicone hoses.

'all the pipes' is a fairly open statement...

There are aftermarket silicon replacements for most of the 'formed' hoses so charge pipework etc... for the smaller vacuum hoses the requirements are subjective at best as some people remove a lot to declutter/delete aspects of it...

General rule of thumb is to measure the internal diameter (ID) and buy vacuum hose accordingly... you sometimes have to use joiners of a different ID to step between larger and smaller ID's that some pipes have...

Anything larger than 6mm ID (8mm and up realistically) consider using a reinforced hose and not vacuum stuff..

You will probably use a combo of 3mm to 6mm on the vac pipes
