I wound up getting the same black crapola from PepBoys that Neal got. Like
he said, it was too thick, looked like shit, and in my case, kept popping off.
I went to Lowe's (Home Depot would have same stuff), and got a 20' roll of
exactly the same tubing that was originally in the car. It's 1/4" external
diameter (0.170" Internal)
Then, I went back to PepBoys and got a new T-Junction for the cables- 1/4"
on each side.
Hooked it up to the new sprayers, popped them in, ran the new hose to the
pump.. and *BAM*. I gots me quad sprayers and all new plastic hose thingies.
