I have misplaced my plastic hoses that connect to the inlets of the m/c .. I have a 914 rubber quick connect m/c so the metal barbs are npt needed.. Any idea on what the plastic material is and can I just buy it locally?? Oh and proper size if that is possible.

I gave some original lines that you could adapt. Bruce |

A little research - SAE J1401 complaint hose is the standard for resisting DOT3 or DOT4 fluid.
I looked on amazon -Tygon 2375 Clear Brake Fluid Reservoir Hose 5/16" 8mm ID 1 Foot I don't know what type of place would sell local. Maybe FLAPS. |

I think the lines are in the 15-18 inch lenght.

If you wind up having to order, I'd probably just get the PMB lines. IIRC, they are pretty reasonably priced. They are a pain to bend but not have to put the barbs on will preserve a couple extra years of your life.
