where to buy assortment of plugs / caps?

I'll be switching out an engine soon and am wondering where I can buy an assortment of vinyl or plastic plugs and caps for the fuel lines, air conditioning lines, power steering pump, etc etc. Does anyone have a good source?

Many thanks,

Ted

If you know the sizes you'll need, I'm sure you could find them at a hardware store, and possibly in auto part stores too.

If you're unsure of the sizes you'll need, you're looking at quite a large "assortment".

There's always the cheap, duct tape route.

A long time ago I started collecting plastic plugs and caps. They very often come in handy in the garage.

Excellent tips - thanks!

Not sure why I didn't think of duct tape either ...
