    Hey all im after some piping that goes from a throttle body to a gas mixer,now the problem is that the TB is 60mm and the mixer is 65mm.what can i use that will seal both sides as it has to seal good for the gas to work.
    Any ideas would be great.

    If you have a solid piece of pipe the right length, you should be able to buy rubber or silicone adapers that fit snug with 60mm on one side, and 65 on the other. Then use metal hose clamps to seal it :) Check out Autobarn or Repco, see what they have in stock.

    Sounds good but with the piece of hose(split) i have now removed the TB and mixer actually touch so it has to be about 2 inches long.The rubber hose i have now is this long yet the openings are different sizes to fit what i have,and this part is not an off the shelf item.
