Can anyone help?
I need to get hold of some clutch and brake master cylinder hose, the clear type. the same hose that Shazaam gave me the web site for http://www.yoyodyneti.com/detail.aspx?ID=249
The company is in the USA. I have never ordered from the States before and dont no quite how to go about this. The pipe is $8 per foot, but would there be a $20 or so charge for Fedex. This would make it quite expensive pipe.
Does any one know if I can get the same stuff in the UK.

Yoyodyne isn't saying what tubing it sells but my guess it's silicone tubing that's compatible with brake fluids. Probably one of the TYGON formulations such as:

Talk to your local industrial or medical equipment supplier, or get the name of the local sales rep .

The tubing's not under pressure, but one guy mentioned that the tubing that he tried started to weep fluid after a bit.

I will ask my mate Dallas where he got his from, probably around Oxford somewhere.

Looks like about £4 for what you want.
