Breather hose for 72 1200 A12 Valve cover to air cleaner?

[DaBlist]

Has anybody found a source for these? I have found the PCV hose but not the breather hose.

Or something with the right bends that works? A PO used heater hose that's ugly and kinks on mine

 

Thanks

Most people just put a mini filter in the valve cover...what did you pay in the pcv hose, if you don't mind me asking?

[DaBlist]

I didn't buy it as I still have the PVC hose. The one I found was $48 something which is to much for a piece of hose.

Yea that's what I seen em going for...to much for me

I don't like the little blue filters. For one they don't do the job right Two they say I couldn't be bothered doing this right.

 

11826-H3900 about $11 if they still have them. Try heater hose.

Thanks! The # was just the ticket, I order the valve cover breather hose:

 

www.nissanpartszone.com/parts/nissan-hose~11826-h1000.html $8.34 / 20.15 after shipping

 

and the PCV hose because mine is old and brittle (and I had my credit card out). Funny but couldn't find them both in the same place:

www.everythingnissan.com/Nissan-Part-Number-11828-H1001-p/11828h1001-.htm $14.88 / $31.06 with shipping

Alright!

go to the wrecking yards and scavenge some vapor hose off other nissans or whatever you can find then use a nylon 90* fitting to join them together. Vapor lines different than heater hose.....

 

 

Oops, saw you already solved this - original always works best anyways if you can.
