lennyKatan Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Ive tried the local dealer and found out its discontuied. Ive tried napa and no go there too. Any ideas what I should try to use for all these vac/lines? Ive notice there are many black soft and hard lines I'm guessing the hard needs to stay hard! this is for a 89 comanche and 91 cherroke its snowing up here
FxRacing282 Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 yeah weve got about 2 inches in one hour up here in New Hampshire . i use soft rubber lines, people use harder ones. imho it don't matter. use what works
lennyKatan Posted December 13, 2007 Author Posted December 13, 2007 What do you think about useing fuel lines or even metal lines? some of these lines that should be replaced are hard so they won't suck in. Looks like we are over 3" of the white stuff already. I'm in VT
feerocknok Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Eh, all my lines are soft, no issues. Feel free to run fuel line or metal line if you're uncomfortable. It holds air just as well.
lennyKatan Posted December 13, 2007 Author Posted December 13, 2007 Thanks for your idea's. Between the 89 Comach n the 91 Cherro there is a lot to do.
Eagle Posted December 13, 2007 Posted December 13, 2007 Rubber line is fine when it's new, but if it softens with age it collapses and then you get no vacuum. I prefer to use steel or copper tubing (copper is much easier to bend, but more expensive and you won't find it at an auto parts store, you probably have to do to a plumbing supply house), and just use a short elngth of rubber to make the connections at the ends.
