thanks for the help too.


Head to Bursons or Repco, they should have them in stock. I got mine from Repco. There is one on Millers Rd in Altona...just after you pass Altona Gates. Don't think there is any closer Burson.

Can't remember price, but no more than $30 I would think.

Yeah pretty much. Hopefully they know which hose...if you can also get new clamps.

hose end was fine, only ended up replacing heater tap, as we found a crack. $17.95 from bursons, so not bad at all.
thanks for the help guys.
