Hoses!

[Guest DazH]

Hey Dudes/Dudettes,

I want to replace ALL hoses under the bonnet as they are all old and cracking and feel nasty to the touch :\. Lately I have had a drop in performance and when I put my foot down, I think some of the power/pressure is 'weeweeing' out a few of the hoses. Can't seem to buy all the hoses brand new any more (for obvious reasons me thinks) and only brand new will do imo. Will need all vacuum and coolant hoses :P

Anyone know of a place where i'll be able to get them or somewhere to buy JUST engine hoses in all sorts of lengths and thickness's? The plan would be to just use the heat-gun to create odd bends to make them fit. Ebay only seems to be interested in flogging me hose dress-up kits so I can pretend I have a scooby engine.....

Need to replicate parts like:

Any ideas welcome,

Daz

Bmw is surprisingly cheap at parts. I got a part I thought would be very expensive for tenner with a O ring I needed to. Worth a try at least

I've tried a few places but they take one look at my motor and go "Nahhh mate, nahhhh" lol

Cheers Val, I'll get that reg to ya now
