Porsche Repair: Vacuum PVC connecting tube, vacuum tubes, pvc tube


Question
I have a 1979 Porsche 928 2S.My vacuum PVC connecting tube that connects all the vacuum lines is cracked and is very fragile. What is the exact name and where can I buy it and how much does it cost? It is a plastic looking PVC tube that connect three or four vacuum tubes. Please help me.

Answer
Hi Maurice,

I didn't find any 928 parts like you desribed but if you are creative, I'll bet you can find another carmakers part that will work just fine.  For example, I searched for "4-way vacuum connector" and came up with some Mercedes parts that might work (see below).  Otherwise, assuming the dealer can't help you, this searching around approach should work.
