SimonB Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 I need some vacuum caps to cap off stuff to fit my boost controller. I thought it'd be a simple trip to the local car bits place, but they looked at me blankly and said they didn't have anything like that! Neither does the local hardware place, Halfords or B&Q (ok I was getting desperate by then!). Any idea where you can get them from? All I want is 4 1/4 inch / 6mm vac caps!

LeeT Posted August 17, 2004 Share Posted August 17, 2004 if you get some let me know where from. i fitted short lengths of hose with a bolt wedged in the end and secured with jubilee clips for a temporary fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds familiar! I thought it would be easy to find vacuum caps. No luck anywhere! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Wilson Posted August 18, 2004 Share Posted August 18, 2004 Wurth do them, not cheap, not cheap at all, but available. If you go on the RX-7 forum they have someone who can source these elsewhere, too. Can't recall his name though... A general question should find him.
