I was at my local NAPA store on Saturday looking for some Vacuum hose for my 300D

1/2 inch is currently on my car & all they had was 15/32 inch no 1/2 inch & they guy behind the counter said they don't make it

Let me know what you find out

Mike, Ray,

I had a feeling that's what I'd hear back. I'll check with NAPA and see
what they carry locally. The 300G has a fairly long run of vacuum hose to
the tank under the fender. Thanks for the input!

Just keep in mind that there are two kinds of hose, pressure and vacuum.
They are made differently. A pressure hose, such as a heater hose made to
carry hot water under pressure, will
soon collapse when a vacuum is applied.
I thought I had a score by saving my Father-in-laws oxygen (pressure) hoses,
but soon found out that even as small as they were, they sucked shut in a
vacuum application.

It didn't
take long for the hose to collapse which choked off the vacuum supply. A
local NAPA store then supplied correct "vacuum" hose which hasn't given me
an
issue since 1993.

All right folks, time's awasting! This Meet will be a good'un, don't miss
it!
Registrations are in your anxious hands, so lets get those Meet
Registrations in soon, give poor Gloria a break and don't wait 'til the last
few days.
