I want to replace all of the hoses in the vacuum system as most of them are old and brittle. I wanted to know if anyone knew off hand what the sizes were for the hoses with the exception of the stock air intake hoses. From what I can recall the majority of the hoses are the same diameter, only a few are different.
I think they are a mix of 4, 6, and 10 mm.

Thanks in advance!

I think there is a number on the lines 7-8mm iirc.

 

Vacuum hose is very cheap. Just go to the auto parts store and get several feet of all the small diameter hoses.

 

Bringin this one back real quick.

How high does the quality have to be for vac hose. I bought some hose the other day but it feels really weak(kinda soft) to the point I can squeese it and block the hose. Just wondering if theres gonna be any problem with this, I'm thinking that under load I might have some problems.

Anyone have any input?

 

If it's made for use a vacuum hose it will be fine. It may not last as long as silicone hose (for example), but it should work.

It is vacuum hose but I'm just not sure how good the quility has to be to be able to hold up under load. I haven't had any problems so far but I think I might just buy something a bit better just to be safe.

Any idea where to buy good quality hose online?

 

I HIGHLY reccomend http://www.hosetechniques.com. Probably not the cheapest, but they have great service and very good quality hose. I've been buying stuff from them for years...

You can a universal silicone hose assortment for $60

 

Thansk for that. I'll take a look now
