What size vac lines?

[mattyb6]

Has anybody replaced they vacuum lines
On they pd130?

If so what size inner diameter did they use?
And did they use a different size for the egr top pipe?

And how many meters did you use?

That's what I'm after

Is there a guide for changing these, where they are etc?

I just took each section of pipe off one at a time and replaced what I removed. Remember there's some pipe down the back of the engine also

I have a Haynes manual with a diagram in, so I'm guna follow that.

I also need to check my cam for wear, and check what seal my tandem pump has. So il do this too

Guess I better stop being a cheap skate and buy a haynes!

They are good like, worth the money if ya planning on keeping the car.
It's really good for the trim aspect of things.
Without breaking clips etc

Bentleys manuals are the dogs danglies though but £100 so il stick with Haynes

I swapped one pipe out at a time in order to get he routing right and not mix anything up. Be careful of the plastic barbs and joiners they will be brittle with age!
