Theo Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Heres the pic: The hose snapped. Should I just replace it and put another normal hose on, or splash out and buy one of the steel braided ones, do I need a crossover pipe or a hose? Also any ideas on how to get the bit of hose left on the slave off? Also is there any way of avoiding this in the future. Thanks! Theo.

Ben John-Hynes Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 You need a crossover. You can cut the old barb off and re-use that. But you'll need another length of hose 'cause the snapped one will be too short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mat Smith!! Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 get a steel cross-over if you can, if not its an easy fix using normal hose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theo Posted April 30, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 (edited) get a steel cross-over if you can, if not its an easy fix using normal hose. You know any that are a bit cheaper than £25? Edited April 30, 2010 by Theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks very tempting. Will never be able to afford that though. I seriously need a job. Ebay seems to charge me ridiculously mad amounts like 5 quid just for buying something now, and when I sold my t-bird they charged me 25 quid.. Is that normal? I mean its just daylight robbery Edited April 30, 2010 by Theo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
