Hey Tim.....I am thinking that hose should have been included in the kit. It is a very important hose because it will cause quite a vacuum leak if it is not a perfect seal end to end. The L-Jet system suffers terribly with any vacuum leak. I would try to source a suitable piece from your local auto parts store for now untill George at AA can help you get one.

The L-Jet system suffers terribly with any vacuum leak. I would try to source a suitable piece from your local auto parts store for now untill George at AA can help you get one. I can't remember what size metric hose that is, either 20 or 22mm, but no, it wasn't included in the AA kit. After calling around, no one has such locally. I did buy some 7/8" rubber hose from the local hose/fitting company. 7/8" is not even close, too much play. Plus they charged me 60.00 for 2' of this rare hose. We'll not exactly, I bought 2 feet of one style 7/8" hose, and 2' of another style hose. The second style seemed to be abit more flexable. So 60 bucks for 2 sections of 2' 7/8" hose. Seemed very salty at that time. Even more frustrating when I got home, and it didn't fit right. So, I'm fine with buying used. Plus this hose has a preformed bend to it, that you can't seem to replicate from buying straight sections of hose. |

If you're feeling adventurous, take the hose to a FLAPS near you and ask them to match it. I could only find a 90degree elbow for $30 |
