Sorry was it the plastic nipples on the big hose or was it just the vaccum lines that you broke?If it was the plastic nipples on the big induction hose you will need to get a new induction hose.If it was just the vaccum line you can just buy the vaccum hose and replace it.

Tech,

I broke both vacuum lines (1/2" Dia, and 3/16" Dia) about 3-4 " back from the sensor that's mounted on the induction hose. The sensor and the Induction hose are not damaged. I rigged a temp. patch repair using a rubber sleave over the breaks to get the car running. I have turbo now and WOW what a difference.
I know that I should replace these hoses but where do they go. I cannot see the path and follow it to the end. They both run inside of a rubber sleave and go toward the intake manifold and that is where I lose them.
