colour coding

[David_smith_909]

wanting to colour code a few of the pipes in my engine (before fuel rail etc ..) i know fuel and silicone dont mix

iv read alot of people just wrap them in cable tidy stuff, and that you get it from pc world and only cost a few quid etc .....

just rang them, they know what i mean but they are all different colour'd ones in the pack, not just the one colour

where do people just get the ones from that are 1 colour? ie BLUE?

will probably try staples and other shops on the retail park down the road at dinner, just wondering before i went if anyone has any suggestions where they KNOW i can get them from?

#cheers people

Apiro cable tidy for electrical covers.

Straights, bends, elbows etc.. for any coolant, vac and air lines in silicone. Also look at Superflex silicon hoses if you got enough money. lol.

All my silicone hoses have been replaced, vac and coolant.

since i can PM yet - Phil or (anyone else who knows) have you got the sizes for any of the hoses?

 

[PhilW]

What hoses do you need to know?

 

[pdcupra]

as many as you can remember?!

 

[PhilW]

Lol.


3 or 4mm for vac hoses.

iirc but dont hold me to it..
7mm for top of header tank
7mm for N75 connections
12 or 15mm (not 100% sure for lower header tank connection
70mm elbow for maf to dynatwist or air filter
7mm 90degree elbow for end of inlet mani to brake servo

Then we can get serious if you want to and use superflex and custom bits with joiners etc......

 

[pdcupra]

well thats a start! where did you get yours from - are they neuspeed alloy caps?thanks!

 

[PhilW]

I know a lot of people who work for samco and live pretty close to the factory.

Forge oil cap, forge strut cap, neuspeed PS cap.
