using fuel hose for water
sorry guys, i know this was covered mere days ago, but i cant find the thread. I cant find anyone selling 10mm hose for radiator plumbing. Would fuel
hose be a suitable substitute?
Also, i need an 8-10-8 tee, which i cant find on the nf auto site. Anyone know where does sell them? the alternative is to use a reducer on the 10mm
pipe, not a problem as its not for flow, merely to let air out.
cheers 
ps, can you believe im actually doing something to the kit?! (in fact, to both!)

8 - 10 - 8 reducer ........ try going to B&Q / local plumbing shop. They should have 8mm micro bore and 10mm micro bore copper pipe work with pre
solder rings. Make the T yourself and the solder rings also help stop the pipe coming off.
Not sure if fuel hose is suitible but make sure what ever you get is temperature rated to above 100 degrees. The plastic DIY pipe is for fish tanks /
home brewing and only rated to 60 degrees.
