Mikuni Vent Hose @ Home Depot!

Post by Makotosun »

So as always I’m looking for something else when I stumble across this.

The small vent line for Mikuni carbs can be expensive and hard to find. It is almost always hard and brittle on the old ones, and often folks just go without. No more.

Pretty cheap at under $5 for 10 feet and made for fuel!

It’s got a tad bit more orange, but when they age, they turn kinda brown anyway!

Gary, did you find that hose in the Lawn Mower, Chain saw part of the store. Thanks for the info. Have you found any other proper Motorcycle hose size there. Bruce
