Where to get tubing for brake bleeding job?

[flyboy320]

As the title says, I'm going to do my brake bleeding soon (using the Motive Brake Bleeder), and need to buy the tubing to connect to the bleed nipple on the brake housing. Does anyone know the correct size I need and where the best place is to buy it (fish/pet store, pool store, etc.)?

Just went on their web site and I see they have several different ID sizes, (1/4", 3/8", 1/2", etc.). Do you know off hand what I.D. size fits the bleeder nipple?

Tiny...pretty sure it's 1/4.... A lighter and a little heat will allow it to expand and fit....don't need much tubing to do this.

Thanks, sounds about right, I'll give it a shot...

My 2015 FSW takes 3/16" ID tubing. Sold by the foot at Theisen's (49 cents/ft). OD is 5/16".
