Servo

Need to join the Vac Pump to Servo, in pic, Did not see or know what should originally be used, studied pics of same conversion, some have just rubber hose and some have what look like plastic fuel lines. Rubber hose and jubilee clips looks the easiest.

I used thick wall rubber hose incase normal walled stuff could suck flat.
Think it was 1/2" or 13mm internal bore, long time ago...

Thanks Mate I've got some 13 mm will stick that on.

I think it is special hose, because it is a vacuum not pressure.
I think normal hose may collapse and block, servo hoses are quite hard when you try and crush them.
Have a route around, the hose from any Land Rover should do, If you find a Discovery hose, you may need to shorten the plastic part.

+1 the hose must be proper vacuum hose available from all good motorist centres [or Halfrauds if you get really stuck]. Codan is a good hose make or buy here

I've got some of this, would it be suitable https://www.halfords.com/tools/fuse...-heater-hose-1m-1/2in-13mm-hfx710-279270.html

Nope, that's heater hose. You need wall reinforced vacuum hose and nothing less

OK Thanks, Wil look to see if Halfords have something.

The vacuum pressure really isn't that much, to put it into perspective, a hoover hose isn't strong at all and the hose on a blocked hoover won't implode, you would get away with heater hose if you had nothing else.

Thanks, Will try and get some off a Disco and cut it down, but may try the heater hose if I need to
