quick question about injector return line hose...

MB = Mercedes Benz? IIRC there were guys buying a hose that was an equivalent of sorts to GM, dunno if it was braided.

Tygon has been used with mixed results. My personal experience has been good for the last 11,000 miles..
 
I know of one who has been running it for years. Found it cheaper plus he had a bunch laying around the shop. He has had no issues at all.

Tygon, I've had nothing but problems and have almost all of it replaced. I just replace it as it gets hard and stops sealing. Down to one line left.

Sylicon, I have had mixed results with it. If I remove a line it has split with in 2k or so miles. But I used longer than normal and found that by cutting it beyond the bulge it goes back on and stays put.

I'm too cheap to get the braided now that I'm in an area where it's readily available.
 
thanks for the replies! I had TONS of the MB (yes, Mercedes Benz) braided return hose. I also have some Tygon hose, I decided to go ahead and use the Braided MB hose on the lines, I used an MB plug in the end injector, and I used tygon to connect the first injector to the crossover pipe on each end, so I can see bubbles on each bank. I think I'll replace the pipe to the return pie hose with some 1/4" clear hose as well, so I can see if the pump is bubbling as well...
