Take off point Westy gas tank - connector, hose

Post by harvey »

I know there was a thread/posts covering this but I just can't find it - sorry.

I'm looking for the connector to hook to my westy gas tank take off point to run a hose to my gas bbq. Also, need the type of hose to get and what kind of clamps, etc

Thanks for any help, Bruce

can be picked up anywhere like b&q plumbing shops ect. but if your buying the connector from brickwerks you might as well add it to the order

Although strangely, MOST retailers will limit the length of hose you can buy in ONE continuous piece.
You need over 4 metres if you are running from tank to sliding door side on a Westy.

Jo public will/should be sold (i think) 1M lengths. Go into a plumber merchants or buy on line and you can get it in longer measurements. Pretty sure mine is around 5M, (think it came from you martin?.. meaning its probably past its date now...) that size means it can reach to anywhere around the van.
