84 turbo hose problems 200 1984

posted by  someone claiming to be garth on  Mon Mar 25 09:39 CST 2002 [RELATED]

hello,
I have a 84.5 intercooled 240GLT. It's been suffering from a vacuum leak that results in stalls when coming to a stop or letting up on the accelerator. I've located a leak in the length of ribbed hose that connects the intercooler with the turbo. The ribbed section has been degraded by oil and started to disintegrate. I'm assuming this leak could quite possibly be the culprit, and am also replacing injector seals, but how can I cheaply repair this short length of ribbed hosing? The plastic elbows are fine, it's just the ribbed stuff that has the hole. Does anyone know where I can get some type of hose (it doesn't have to be the same, just so long as it works) to replace the damaged hose? I'd very much prefer to keep costs to the bare minimum. Thanks...
