    Vent tubing

    Hey all, just a quick question. What kind of hose should I get to replace my missing carburetor fuel vent tubes (the ones that connect to the T-junctions between the carbs)? As I understand it from what I've read on bikecliff's site, I need 5mm (or 3/16") tubing but I don't really know what kind to get.

    Will probably order from mcmaster-carr unless there is an easy place to go grab it (does autozone / advance auto parts sell this stuff by the foot?)

    Just something that can withstand the heat, usually vacuum hose works fine.

      That would be it

      Thicker walls than stock, but works fine
