The tube that I made seems to have held up, but I've only done about 500 KM in a couple of months of driving. Now I am looking for a more elegant solution. I've seen several PCV hoses, but am worried that they would not resist the temperature in the engine compartment. Does anyone have suggestions on what exactly I should be looking for?
