Ted:

Plan on replacing all the rubber parts of the vac lines, they are all shot.

Also, check to make sure the vac actuators for the EGR and air recirc valve hold vac -- they are the two branches from the 5-way "t" at the front of the engine that go to the passenger side. If they leak (both of mine did), you won't have adequate vac for climate control OR transmission!

I just plugged mine, til I get $120 free for replacements.
