Title: vacuum hose
Post by: chardrc on October 14, 2007, 11:45:39 AM

so i was installing a new pcv valve in my jeep yesterday because it was clogged ans forcing oil into my air box. and i noticed 90% of my vacuum lines are cracked and leaky. where do you get new vacuum hoses from.. is it anything special or just normal 1/4" rubber hose?

I get mine at Advanced Auto, Autozone or Pep Boys. It's just emissions hosing. It's pretty cheap.

You should be able to buy it by the foot.  Take one line then measure it out then replace.  DON'T take all the lines out at once.

I've heard of people doing that.  :ass: I don't recommend it. lol Although it would make for a good laugh.
