Has anyone done it before. Thanks
Don't do it. Buy a piece of Silicone Tubing or buy the stock Rubber stuff. I went silicone since I wanted Blue plus silicone will never crack. Also, seals like a frogs arse. Some may disagree but silicone tubing is used on Turbo Intercooler applications, which carries lots of pressure, so i have to support the silicone stuff.
