Do I have to be picky due to pressure with attaching a soft line for the purge? Or will pretty much any tubing from the autoparts store work? Kind of doing something similar to the dynotune purge set up....

 

soft purge is fine if you are cheap like me. get a small piece of pipe with the right threads for the purge on it. looks horrible but works 100%. function over fashion when you don't have $ to **** and burn.

 

Make sure whatever you get is made to handle that much pressure.

DO NOT use rubber hose, vacuum line, etc.

 

Well thats my question...LOL...what specific type of hose/line do I need?

 

You can go to lowes and get the milky white colored tubing, just ask one of the salesmen what can withstand high pressure (1200+psi)

I think all that the auto parts stores would have that you can use is copper.

 

Air brake hose will work too

 

Couldnt find anything in my trips today. Salesman at Home depot said I need to find hydraulic hose....

 

Not for the purge you don't. The milky white, hard plastic line they sell will work. I think it's the same stuff you would use to hook up an icemaker on a fridge LOL

It may me nylon tubing.

 

I looked at that stuff. its identical to the tubing in the dynotune purge kits, but its only rated to like 55-70psi...hmmmm

 

I bet being an open end tube will releive alot of the pressure.

 

Matt, I don't know if that Home Depot stuff will work but there is a hydraulic hose place called Cauliflower on Pulaski Highway in White Marsh that will have anything you ever need. Did I see you coming out of White Marsh mall around 5pm today? I was gonna call but didn't have my phone on me.

 

The home depot stuff will be fine for a purge, I've used it many,many times with no problems. Hydraulic stuff is way overkill and cost alot more $$$

 

I guess it can't hurt to try the home depot stuff....its cheap enough.

yeah that was me...I didnt see you. Had to drop off a tux....

 

you dont need anything rated 1200 psi. Its not like a main feed line that is under pressure. if the end of a purge line were sealed then yes you would need a material designed to handle that kind of psi. When it comes to purging its just an open line, so its not actually containing that kind of pressure. I would use something slightly rigid, we use flexible aluminum tubing in our kits.

Dynotune kits use 1/4" Poly line, which is available at any home/hardware store.

 

If you want something a little better looking we introduced our purge systems a few years back with alluminum purge tubing. We flare the ends and put a B-nut and sleeve on it for rigid mounting. We sell this tubing seperatly.

It comes standard in 3ft however if you need it longer we can make it longer.

This is the same stuff I used forever. I've bought it from Ace hardware, TSC, Home Depot. It's cheap too. Make sure you don't buy the silicone stuff from Autozone.

 

I don't remember the exact size but I used a piece of hard brake line 6" long off the solenoid and then medium strength plastic air brake hose to the wiper cowel. The plastic line was about the diamater of a pen or pencil. This worked excellent and was great for the fast sneaky purge when sneekin on some one. The larger line dumps any air in a split second rather than the typical 3-5 second purge.

 

I used brake line from autoparts store, rented a tube bender from autozone and bent it up to the cowl off my purge.
