Hi, i have recently purchased a 1955 Matchless G3LS the rubber hoses connecting the oil tank to the engine appear to be soaking oil through them, what are the best type of hoses to use.
Thank you for any information available.

Re: Oil tank hoses
Hi
I prefer the look of the original smooth black neoprene hose finished off with brass ferrules, there's no pressure to speak of in the pipelines so provided they are the correct diameter they will seal without the use of jubilee clips etc.
AMC Classic sell the neoprene hose, but why not join the club and take advantage of our spares scheme and all other additional attributes?
Regards Mick
