BSH Catch tank alternative fit.

Not trying to be controversial here but Phil@BSH doesn't advise using s/steel braided hoses so close to the rubber fuel lines.

Just to complicate the GB even more for people, I can supply this kit with s/steel braided hose, silicone hose and also anodised hose end finishers (in red or silver) on request at extra cost.... :happy2:
Please dont go out and pay over the odds for these items if your considering changing the rubber hose supplied by BSH, we can sort a price out to beat most if not all on hose and accessories. :grin:
I'll post up pics of mine once its done, but I plan to use a different hose set up and mount in an alternative position.

....Hi Ben, such alternatives sound quite exciting to me - Any excuse for a bit of eye-candy! I'm gonna wait to see your pics before installing mine when it comes.
:happy2:
Dubtek:
Depends if your fuel lines are still rubber though.... :P Did those before the relationship with BSH started. And to be fair it comes down to nothing more than cost...s/steel braided hose is a rubber hose with braid over it at the end of the day, it doesnt contaminate anything else around it! And chaffing isnt really an issue on the rubber hose from the braided if its routed correctly. We've already been in discussions with BSH to supply alternative hose and fittings in the future so watch this space :party:
