Snowy, in the past I've also used some hose from Z Power and its gone rigid before fitted my tank on :shock: - was only used a couple of times from my auxilliary petrol tank - now thrown it in the bin.

Since changed to Nitrile (NBR) - its meant to be far more resistant, and does seem better.

Cant recall mate. I bought 5m of several sizes as its cheap, as I seem never to have a length of syphon hose when I need it!
Fraction of the cost for overflow pipes.
