Well, I tried it out and I think you said it best in another post, George. If it's not broke, don't fix it.
I swapped the hoses and it would barely run, much less idle. I thought I may have found something but that wasn't it.


I don't know if you remember a post I did a while ago about a problem where I thought the tranny was surging, but you suggested a vaccum leak somewhere. I think you were right because I was able to recreate the problem in several situations to rule out the tranny. I have changed out the hoses everywhere but still have the problem of the engine surging when I am at a constant speed (only bottom end, top end is strong and solid).

Thanks everybody for the info, I guess there is always more than one way to do something.
Phil
