vacuum hose sources... 700

Brickers:

Over time I've seen some posts about vacuum hoses, but I have yet to see anyone post a solid source from which to buy them.

The image at the bottom of this message is from some hose I found listed on importec's site under vacuum hose... they crosslist fuel hose as the same thing. However, this hose looks like its nylon reinforced or something and not what I'm looking for.

Basically, I want to replace the vacuum hose between the turbo gauge and the intake manifold, and the intake manifold and the little bell thingee above and in front of the power steering pump (my car is a 1985 745t).

Anyone know if this hose is what I seek, and if it isn't where I might be able to pick up some new stuff that'll work in my brick?

Thanks,
rt

CarQuest, NAPA, etc. Carquest IS a little overpriced, but they tend to have a decent quality product with respect to belts, hoses, and the like. Usually similar stuff to what FCP Groton and IPD offer.

NAPA has it's own merits. Likewise, a decent place.

Basically, your local parts joint is good enough for that stuff. Fuel hose is good where oil soaking is a serious problem. Some hoses are more immune to it than others.

Any auto parts store has perfectly suitable hose.
