What, where size hose do I buy and T-fitting to connect my washer to the nozzle?

Over here any decent auto parts shop will stock the hose on the roll and should have T-pieces too. It is sometimes called vaccum/washer hose and comes in various sizes. Do you have any chain outlet parts shops over there?

we have NAPA auto parts but I doubt they carry the T-fitting. The T-fitting has 2 different size connections.

NAPA have this one as an example - different sized barbs on each end, cut off the small end if using the next size up hose. Works for 1/8, 1/4 and 3/8 hoses

Clear


Early minis (1966 to 1970 at least) were green tinted pvc. I don't know about Clubman series.
I think that's why aquarium suppliers are suggested as green tubing was used so as not to scare the fish.

You might be right. Most of the ones I have seen were clear brown so I assumed they were originally clear to start with. I will see id I can dig up a few pics.

My K had green hose originally and I've got the old green ones from the '66 S in a box here.

I have not seen that clamp for sale by the usual mini shops. There are plenty of similar steel line clamps available through other outlets but they look slightly different.

You might be able to find a brake or fuel line "P" clip that is pretty close. Otherwise just make one up?
