Default Hose for prm

Just had prm fitted and am missing the small pipe that is I believe the breather pipe. (the small bit from oil to prm)

Where is the best place to get some and does anybody know the exact size?

No doubt AE will be here later to correct my rubbish car knowledge

Measure what size the little bit is which goes from the breather to the metal bit of pipe, and order that size

I meant the width of pipe, not the length

The answer was still right. You need to measure the diameter of the tube you want to fit the pipe over.

If you have an old school compass then use this to gauge the diameter and check it on a ruler. - easy.

Then you want 9mm bore tube. It stretches a bit when you connect it onto the spigot.
