Planning to do a TB sync over the weekend and want to replace all the vacuum hoses on the 5 way tee. Can I increase the length of the vacuum hoses so I can route the tee to the top of the TB?

Thanks.

I believe I saw the great ST Wisperer did exactly that, hopefully he will speak here soon.

I would not make them more than a quarter inch longer or you will create a kichen sink trap.
Make them just a little longer than they are so the vapors go back down into the TB and out of the lines.

Would kmow/tell us the hose ID size?

I'm hoping to have the replacement hose before I do the changeover so I'm wondering the inside diameter and the length

Sorry to hop on here but I have searched and not found the proper how to do the TB sync on a 1300. Is there one out there written or simple deal?

Picked up 5/32 vacuum hose from Advance Auto Parts. I'll cut the new hoses down to size based on the length of the old hoses I just disconnected.

I done my 07 2 or 3 years ago . I ran the hoses out front for easy access. Search my name under leaks. Tdinova
