Our pressure is ~30psi; even the cheap hose is good for 50 psi. Modern cars run at 60psi or more. Home Despot is fine. Buy 12 feet and replace just this hose, then drive home and replace everything in the engine compartment this weekend. . -- Jim Adney jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, WI 53711-3054 USA ------------------------------------------------------------------- List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
