The diameter is bigger for the econometer than for the windscreen washer

If anyone from the outside world reads this...they'll think we're all VERY sad! :)

I think mine might have washer pipe for vac pipes in places....it ought to work either way, no?

Speaking of washers.....do you want this headlight wiper kit or what Aymat?! :-P

cheers

No no, it's a sign of professionalism!! :wink: sm56 It's important to take details into account :P

Of course I want my kit! :mrgreen: I was so worried about my 340, the carb problems the last weeks... I forgot a little bit the wipers! I will send an email to you about that, ok?

:P i mean really.

open up that demon tweeks motorsports catalouge you all should have (no i don't mean the one with all the alloys and naff springs in, thats the tuning one.)

turning the page with samco silicone hose on. and order yourself some stuff in the size you want. i'd go for 3mm as you could use it for ether aplication, it holds boost pretty well too (13-16psi when i had a turbo) but i guess thats not a concern for most of you.

anyway have fun.
