markejackson02 Posted September 25, 2017 Report Posted September 25, 2017 I need to replace the hoses on the Brittain system behind the panel (original from 1977). 7/32 ID wiper/vacuum hose is the recommended replacement. It is offered in latex or silicone or "synthetic rubber". What are the pros and cons of each? Quote
markejackson02 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Report Posted September 26, 2017 FWIW, the lady at Brittain was super nice. Gates 27043 at auto store 8-10 feet. Will give it a shot. 2 Quote
tony Posted September 26, 2017 Report Posted September 26, 2017 why don't you ask CeCi? she'll tell you what the recommend. Quote
markejackson02 Posted September 30, 2017 Author Report Posted September 30, 2017 New issue. Removed a couple of the hoses. They were so old that they basically crumbled and left hose on the tee fittings. Is there anything recommended to remove the residue after I peel off the big chunks of rubber. Quote

If they are that crappy, the fittings should clean up easily Quote
