Dear Hoser (washingmachine discharge?? not that kind of hoser )

(for those who remember Bob and Doug MacKenzie )

Washing machine and dishwasher discharge hose offers absolutely no position
of credibility regarding heat or fire resistance - you may was well cover
the hose with masking tape or green painters tape  -

Some decent hose can be purchased from wrecking yard if you are not flush
with cash for the project -
Use of this household item inside your engine bay may actually cause your
rig to burn up -

Oh well it is your rig --
Imagine the dishwasher hose suffering the fate as described in your link -

Please at least get an auto use rated hose with some heat or fire
resistance - Please :)

regards (Take off eh - ya hoser ) Sorry can't help the Bob and Doug
references - now that it started - :)
