I’m in the process of tarting up my engine bay. I already have the ACT blue silicone cooling system hoses and the black oil breather hose sticks out! Has anyone changed the breather hose for a colour coded one and where did you get it from?

I’ve just removed my blue ones (less than 6 months old) and changed to black. I’ve got the oil breather but just looked and I’ve sliced it approx 2 inches to get it off the oil tank. Could send it foc but wouldn’t be until next week.

Ask powers and see if they’ll send you just that one?

That’s really kind of you. Do you think it will still reach? If so then I’d be grateful for this.

I’ll measure it in a bit and let you know. Got the entire set here but it’s for an early speed 6 T350 with upright rad. It’s says north west in your profile. Might be able to sort meeting to drop off as I’m all over the Wirral, widnes, Liverpool areas with work.

Just compared it to the one on the car. Fitted one is shorter than the blue one by approx 50mm. Length of blue one is 512mm. Slit is 35mm so should be able to cut off end and have plenty left.

That’s great! My Tuscan is currently at X-Works having some bits and bobs done, including a bonnet conversion, hence the need to tidy up the engine bay.
Very happy to meet up when I get the car back. Unlikely before next week though.
