any rough idea of how much & what diameter vacuum hose you need to replace the vacuum hoses on a TT?

 

most deletes are done so that must save a bit LOL!

most places do kits...

 

check out ebay... or SFS

I checked SFS but they list about 6 different sizes and I am sure you only need a couple of sizes - just wondered if anyone knows for sure

3 sizes....

 

3, 5 & 8 mm (from memory)

 

I'm sure they do a kit....

like this...

Ive been using these Guys.

5 and 8 sounds about right. ive not come across any 3mm yet.

LOL! this is what I was hoping to avoid!! :wacko:

 

:lol:

3mm does seem very small - perhaps theres a few bits for where the vacuum pipe goes to the boost gauge sensor - I really should just go & measure a few pipes!! :D

is this better?

they seem to think its 4mm and 6 mm (and so missing the 8 mm)

PMSL - so the other links were 3, 5 & 8 - now we have 4 & 6mm as a possibility too.

 

Has anyone actually bought any & fitted it?! :lol:

4mm for all Sensors and Solenoids

5mm for all Turbo Vac side

 

8mm is for Water feeds So not Reg silicone piping

LOL.... it's really not difficult...

 

the small hose is 3 or 4 mm and the lager one is 6mm and you can also use the 8mm one from the power assistance unit vac hose....

 

and yes i have used the 3, 6 & 8 mm kit and used all three sizes...

 

if you're still not sure.. pull some vac lines of and measure the inside size....

 

or use the "search" option... :)

i see your mistake... you said

:lol::lol:...Roughly i used 4mm on everything (vacume and boost) on pipes where its a little tight just put the end of rubber into boiling water and its a done job.

yeah sorry i forgot about the Brake/clutch vac side being 8mm ..

 

but it is for sure 4mm and 5mm but i used 6mm its ok but need to cable tie some of the joins due to being a little large ..

just how rough do you want it... ;)

 

well I do like it rough!! :D

 

perhaps a little more specific in this instance however!! :lol:

god knows how many boost leaks ive got then.. lol..

I bought the 3mm for the turbo pipes, but looked too small so have been working round with 5mm and seems fine...

Im easily confused so fecked now...lol
