Hydraulic return hose

[dougaldog]

Help!
Does anyone have a spare return hose; the one that comes from the flow distributor and height correctors? Mine's split where it joins the rubber manifold which joins to the reservoir. I believe this is not included as part of the octopus kit (at least it wasn't with the GSF one).
Cheers,
DG.

that sounds like the 'baby' octopus which GSF supply but as a seperate part number!

Thanks Vanny,

I've just rung GSF and they don't stock this any more. It's only £41 + VAT from Citroen..

And yes, you're quite right, they call it a 'baby' octopus as well.

i would imagine thats where i got the name from!

GSF not having stock is probably NOT a good thing though, i can see its going to become more common for things to start dropping off the shelves for the bx in the next few years

unless we buy from them!

Bought from dealer in the end, at least they're a stock item in the UK (but have to be ordered in from central location). Now for the MOT....

I am in the midst of replicating the pipes out of lifelong nylon pipes and
metal t-joints. coz I know in the future BX parts are going to
be scarce. like my CX which are getting hard to get now.
