From: PHILLIPS I <ivor.phillips@ntlworld.com>

Hi Richard


I have fitted silicone hoses all around with heat-sleeve

 http://www.adlinsulflex.com/firesleeve/pyreflect-sleeve


Silicone hose from Forge Motorsport,


I used CTC clips from a GM/Opel car ( part no 90572595) because the
original Rotax clips Wouldn=92t go over the heat sleeve very easily,


 But all my hoses wouldn=92t Leak unpressurised even without the clips, so 
I
would look

at a damaged hose Or foreign matter between rubber hose and metal outlet,


Best wishes

Ivor
