Bump i need help guyys!!

 

you don't use nylon piping? from home depot? or you normally use braided fuel hose?

I personally get my tubing from a local autoparts store/home depot

 

Contact the manufacturer of your unit I'm sure they can sell you the lines. Curious, I've heard this happened before from different members. How did it rip?

 

i wish i knew.... ...

 

abrasion, pinch, or *cheap* material not meth resistant.

 

That braided line is tough to break, but there are plenty of sharp edges in the trunk. You have two options that i know of, either give steve@smc or if you check the coolingmist site they sell it by the foot.

Cheers!

 

or just get nylon tubing, and purchase 1/4" fittings from 4ws

 

Braided line > nylon line.
Call Steve at SMC or make your own line from Mcmaster-Carr parts.

 

Where are you located? I have a lcoal napa that specializes in tubing as well and they had the same stuff that the companys sell for a fraction of the price.

 

I bought the same hose that comes with my meth kit my LOWES....Black tubing 1/4 tubing,,,

 

He has ss line... Its a little harder to come by...

Converting to nylon tubing would be a much cheaper alternative though.

Cheers!

 

thx guys!! i found a place locally ... that specializes in hoses ... good deal

 

not in this case

It's always a good idea enclose modified electrical wiring, *nylon* meth 1/4" tubing, non-oem vacuum hoses in "wireloom protector" ...

 

is water and methanol good for the car. i am thinking of purchase the snow performance boost cooler stage 2.
