| Does anyone know where I can buy these vacuum lines and their connectors (elbows, tees, etc.)... I've searched everywhere and find it hard to believe that these hard plastic lines are so elusive and never spoken about. |

The PET is a great resource for stuff like this. In many cases you'll get a part number, but with hoses you get diameters listed as well. Every part on your car is in this document, with breakdowns for everything.

| Thank you very much for the link, I don't see diameters on the vacuum lines though, only lengths in millimeters. The document is very helpful for other parts of the car. I recently bought a Hanes book which is very helpful also, and answered alot of questions. |

There are both, and a mix... sometimes you only get a part number, and you might have to look it up. So looking for intake vacuum lines...
Illustration 106-00
You get e.g. for parts #1 and 2:
- N 020 139 1 | hose
4 X 1
1 700 MM
- N 020 353 5 | hose
2 40 MM
Translate this to: part #1 is listed in the catalog as N0201391 and is a 4x1 hose (4mm ID 1mm sidewall) of length 700mm...
Not everything you perceive as a "hose" may have diameter and length information provided, if they are molded in any way.
You may also not get that information anyhow -- but research the part numbers and correlate whatever information you may need. Even if a part is NLA, you will typically find some information on it in a search. _________________ 1980 Porsche 931
