Re: plug boot tubing
instead of trying to get tubing, use wire, strip a section of plastic from the wire then using pliers pull the wire out of the insulation and there u have it tubing

Re: plug boot tubing
Fly fishing tubing works very well for that and it is cheap and high quality. The smallest, called micro, I use for plug wires and the next size for boots. Comes in many colors. Amazes me they can make tubing this small. If you do a search for this stuff and find different brands the best brand is HARELINE.
Here is a link so you can see what I am talking about.

And another.

Re: plug boot tubing
Got any pictures of it in action on a model engine Big D?
I use some single-core wire and take the actual metal from it. Got it from TPB but am looking for a place that sells spools of it once I identify what the actual type of wire it is.
