Hi All. My car has been fitter with very heavy/ hard rubber breather hoses. I was going to replace with silicon, The straight lengths that I am looking at are all reinforced and still seem a bit over kill. I only need a couple of straight pieces. What are people here using please.
 
Any oil resistant silicone hose will be fine as long as it’s 2 ply minimum. You don’t need to go crazy on spending, straight pipe is fairly cheap in comparison to elbows and reducers. ASH silicone hoses are where the majority of people by there hoses from.


Alternatively you can get this flexible silicone hosing which is a little more expensive but it can be used as straight or bent without kinking.


Try not to use anything with less than 19mm internal diameter.

Many thanks again. The flexi pipe looks great ,I have saved the link to that. Will be coming in useful for the winter re build. Will use the ASH silicon as only need a couple of straight pieces. Re my earlier post, I have decided to keep the pcr valve. Will replace it as the old one seems not to be working.
