I found a piece of EGR hose at the auto parts. It was a few bucks at most. I think it is more oil and heat tolerant than water hose. How much was the provent? I am using an aluminum beer bottle with steel wool and vent holes. |

I just used black heater hose. There is no real pressure. I think i used 5/8 from the CCV and Intake over to where i located the Provent. (Just behind the battery) I then fitted the 5/8 into a small lenth of 3/4 hose by using RTV. (no Clamps needed, just let it dry overnight) The 3/4 then clamps to the provent. Any questions, PM me. I can FWD you pic's. No leaks and clean looking. |

About 10k on it. I used the same hose on a Volvo diesel for 5 years. No issues. |
