Vacuum Line Filter

Yesterday I finally decided to add the inline filters to the Vacuum line at the fuel shut off, as a protection incase the shutoff diaphram leaks engine oil.

Also added one from the large black vac line going to the brake booster.
this filter takes care of the air/heat pod under the dash, the door lock system and the fuel shutoff.

I read WHUNTER post on this subject a while back, and finally got motivated to get er done.

I scrounged through all my rubber connectors, and came up with what looks pretty good. a couple rubber elbows makes the bends smoother. the center rubber tri piece of the 3 I have pictured is the one I used. It has a plastic clip to hold the 3 together. not sure what model I pulled it off of at PNP. most I have seen are the type on the left.

so we definately do not want engine oil in the vacuum system.

This is on the 85 Cali, with the simplified Vacuum system .

We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics. Funny how that works
