16mm Oil Pipe
Anyone got an offcut of a rubber pipe with a 16mm diameter? I am reworking my oil cooling system and the 10mm diameter pipe I have is too small to go
over the connector on my oil cooler. If I have a 3" bit of 16mm pipe I can make a reducer. Don't really want to buy a meter if I can help
it!
Cheers.

Are you sure it isn't 13mm??
And 10mm sounds very small for oilways.....

10mm is small for oil cooler pipes and will restrict flow, I am going up from 1/2" (13mm) to 5/8 (16mm)
I eat to survive
I drink to forget
I breath to pi55 my ex wife off (and now my ex partner)

It's the return from the cooler to the sump. The connector on the sump is definately 10mm. The connector on the cooler measures up at 16mm, but
I could probably get a 13mm on. 16mm is the outside diameter of the 10mm pipe I have, allowing me to make a reducer.
