CRD Owners, in right hand drive countries, if you used clear reinforced fuel rated PVC hoses from your CCV to Provent and return to turbo, you should read this post: http://www.lostjeeps.com/forum/phpBB3/vie ... 522#463522 CRD owners in North America - this may still apply to you depending on how you have routed your hoses and Provent location. |

The tubing you are using is oil resistant, but dosen't like heat. the only thing I found that stands up is an agricultural grade hose made by Goodyear for low pressure oil lines. I will get the part # off it and post it |

White plastic bilge hose has worker great for me for 2 + years/ 30K mi.'s. It fits slightly large, but you can wrap the male parts with tape or? It bends really nice too! I put the Provent up front right next to the airbox. You can't even see it. Drips perfectly onto my drive way |

Turbo Tim and I had the same issue. Tim found that hydraullic "suction" hose is heat resistant and will not pinch shut. Expensive, but it has steel braided insert and is heat resistant. Not quite as flexible, however. |

No part # on the hose it just says " Goodyear farm hose " and a date code. |
