What do you use for rear PVC hose to carb?
« on: January 07, 2016, 11:14:07 PM »
I'm using heater hose right now for the rear PVC outlet to the aircleaner. I can't seem to find anything less rigid. Would like to see if something else would be more flexible. What do you use?

Advance sells hose specific to PCV systems.  I used this.  I found it over near the PCV valves.  I'll admit it makes a sharp bend, but it works.  Two 90* fittings would make it better.

That strange, molded hose for the bowl vent is actually available 3rd party, but it's not cheap.

Do you know of a picture on Advance? I looked but there are quite a few.

Ask for "crankcase ventilation hose".  The link shows what I THINK I bought, not the exact size.  Though it could be correct.
