Just wondering if anybody knows the hose ID I've maked in pic, at a guess I'd say 8mm?.
Looking to replace the lot with some braided stainless.
Same stuff I'll be using on the fuel lines if it's suitable to use as brake servo hose also?

You could pull the hose off and check the od of the pipe it connects to to get the hose id?

Id be inclined to use the correct hose rather than fuel line.
Servo hose is designed to not collapse under constant vacuum. Where as fuel line is designed to carry fuel under pressure and not vacuum. Although to be honest, i cant see why it wouldn't work.

Then just buy some braid sleeving to cover it if thats the look your after.

Due to the mrs having a ton of space to work and mine being comparable to a large cardboard box every bit of of kit I own is over there right now.

Just impatient, I'll take it off later and see what's what.

Was more curious if it was suitable to use braided tbh. My fuel line braided is completely solid which made me think I could you use it for vacuum hose.

Yeah was thinking of just replacing that piece, but thought I'd do the whole thing as I've got fuel lines and coolant done too.

Just wanted to keep it uniform really
