I think I had a $10 coupon, but the list before the discount was $109.

I used hose clamps, just to be safe.

I'd prefer free shipping but $10 is better than nothing. If you don't use the code give it to me as they haven't responded yet.

This is what was sent to me via email. It is a quote number, not a code so you probably have to order via phone. Sure they will accept the quote#

Due to the large diameter of the hoses, mine collapse under vacuum when the hoses are warmed up. Do you guys have any ideas? I am thinking about add a fitting and downsize it to 3/8 which should be able to withstand the pressure.

Are you running the upr kit?

I install the UPR kit and put the 19/32 pcv hose on. I had a problem with the hoses collapsing also. I put springs inside the hoses to kept them round.

Are they stainless springs? Where did you buy them from?

Not stainless, I figured that with all the oil in the hoses they will not rust. I got them at a local mom and pop hardware store.
