Changed out my vacuum hoses with silicon- pic

[cj80cruiser]

Bought the hoses here:

Intercooler Pipe Fabrication - Silicone Intake Systems Auto Parts

Same day shipping and a 10% off coupon code: link987

I still have a few more to change.

I just ordered a set of these since I am having an idling issue and a lot of my lines are split/cracking. Are you still pleased with them?

got mine in today, the shop kit has 18 feet of 4mm, 12 of 6mm, 8 feet of 8mm and 6 of 10mm, way more than enough!

Is there enough hose to do two 4runners? My buddy needs this kit worse than I do but we could split the costs if there is enough hose.

I would say no. You could probably split the 4mm, but I found I could use more of the larger stuff.

You got the $29 or $49 kit?

I still get some PM's about the hoses, so I am bumping up the thread again. My hoses still look as good as the day I installed them.

Thanks for the useful link...

Recently replaced a leaking valve cover on my 1997 Tacoma (DLX with 3.4) and had issues with the old cracked hoses - replacing with these, purchased the kit. Will post follow up...:thumb3:

Go these from the same vendor AAA+++

Thanks for the post!

I ordered from these guys (siliconeintakes.com) arrived in less than a week and they honored the discount code! link987

The 'kit' was plenty for a 1997 5VZ-FE (3.4 V6) - I ordered black, very happy with the results and many thanks for the post.

Some pictures....

Probably not going to be able to tell much - truck has 250K, everything stock. Replaced vacuum hoses since they were brittle and leaked.

That looks sweet. My 15 year old hoses might be finally wearing down. Might be getting this kit.

Is that Valvoline chilling in the bay (to the right of the master cylinder)?

 

[area51]

Good eye, it's Mobil One. A spare to have on road trips...

Can anyone confirm if the silicone is California legal? Or if it's just the colors that California has a problem with?

In the thread someone replied they have used black and passed CA's inspection. I would do the same, but I would ever tell you to skirt the law. Just saying....I would never in live in CA, this example is just one of many.
