In the process of re-doing vacuum lines on my 1.8L Ljet. The vacuum line that has given me trouble before is the 22mm (blue in picture) which I cobbled together with less than desirable results.
 I'm toying with the idea of using a hose from most scuba setups, the BCD corrugated inflator hose. It is rubber of some type, the ID diameter appears to be very similar, and I like the idea that it looks very flexible so it can be routed to look somewhat stock vs what I had before. Question is, what is this made out of, and how will it hold up?   |

22mm is same size as the big vent hose for 911.
Not cheap and only sold by the meter, but it would be correct. BTW yes I'm a scuba diver, way back in the day I was the youngest diver (13) in my province. I had a NAUI junior licence, I had to have an adult with me to get an air fill. |
