Hey Guys,

Got a leak in the air con suction hose which is in front of the headers due to the heat.

I have a replacement from another pulsar, however i want to prevent the same thing happening, so looking to hear some good options to protect the hose from melting?

Preferably low cost... the A/C shop advised a new hose could be made to redirect further away from the headers, but would cost me like another $130 with filter replacement, then add $100+ for labour (on top of $160 re-gas) so somehow around the full quote was $400-450.

Have heard of high heat foil tape, sleeves, and exhaust wrap... for application around the hose.

What products are recommended? and is ebay stuff ok, or a specific brand? also where can i buy it?

Please let me know any info or experiences.

Thanks.
