Make sure you get a hose marked as vacuum hose or keep the receipt for the SVA. I managed to get the marked stuff, but its not always easily available.

All the best

You can get a one way valve from the scrappy, paid 50p for mine from a 200 series Rover, most cars should have one in-line somewhere under the bonnet.

Just make sure you fit it the right way round as some of us have been known to make that mistake .

I used Samco servo hose without markings and had no problems with sva. probably depends where you go , I gave the centre a ring to check in advance it would be ok.:thumb:
