August59 Posted April 3, 2018 Share Posted April 3, 2018 Just wondering if anyone had any good ideas as to how they went about replacing hoses that appear to have been long discontinued? Ex; PCV hose from valve cover. ID dia. on each end is different as well the hose from other valve cover to air breather has different id dia. ends Unless anyone still knows of a source for these because I'm batting zero. In past I've went with smaller diameter hose and use heat gun to stretch the small end. This works, but it thins and stresses the hose pretty be, but it was cheap hose may try again with higher quality if possible. Any problems using standard dimension hoses as opposed to metric dimension hose as long as they are a very close match? Thanks ahead of time for any feedback Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deerhurst Posted April 4, 2018 Share Posted April 4, 2018 I can't see any issues with English vs metric as long as the fit is good. I do this all the time with air hoses and fittings at work. Sometimes you gotta use what you got to get the equipment running again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
