    Vacuum Line Size?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I want to fix up my vacuum lines on my 2.8 30v. The oem rubber hoses are pretty old and crusty. Here's a pic of the lines I'm talking about (blue lines):


    Are these lines from 034 the right size?

    Re: Vacuum Line Size?

    silicone will out-last the car itself.
    cloth covered rubber is better than un-covered rubber because it protects the rubber from heat and the elements which is the major source of failure, but it will still dry out because that's what rubber does naturaly.


    this is a good case of more-expensive does not mean better.
