Decided to change the old brake fluid this morning & couldn't find me trusty clear plastic tube for fitting on't nipples.
There seem to be quite a few different ID pipes on offer on the interweb thingy so wondered if anyone could tell me what's the best size to use?
The widest part of the nipple seems to be about 6.5mm so I'm figuring a 6mm ID might be about right but then again a 5mm would be a tighter fit. HELP!!
Nipples and pipe!

Re: Nipples and pipe!
I use 4mm id pipe for the first 60mm them 6mm od clear pipe to the retaining pot .
Re: Nipples and pipe!
I go the other way start with a the end larger to go over the nipple...ooor err then smaller going towards the pot. I had a bit of old pipe laying around, stuck the end in boiling water and then fitted over the nipple. It eventually hardened up and stayed that size over time.
