VACUUM LINES...ugh...and a question.
Well..what an exciting day, started with taking apart my old headlights, and ended with redoing all of my vacuum lines.....i mean ALLLL OF THEM. I must have had 15' of the smaller line and 6' of the larger. The vacuum lines i took off of the car looked to all be 17 years old...completely original, thin and brittle. I replaced them all with goodyear 2ply vacuum lines, they were almost triple as thick yet just as flexible. .....boy the four lines down to the power steering pump are a @$(%* to change! lol After all of it was said and done though the car seems to shift a little smoother, pull a little harder, idle a little smoother, even increased steering response....maybe its just my imagination, but it seems like it.
Well, while i was in there i also found an oil leak from an ODD place, check it out:
This is on the driver's side of the vehicle above the engine oil pan, it seems to be some sort of pressure sensor. It's held down by four bolts, with a wire leading away. anyone know what it is?
