Ooooo... gun show!!! Danger danger.... I guess we will see how it goes with the Optima... if its not as good as it sounds, we will probably run around to see some others. But if it is a good one... maybe we can run by the show an meet up with yah!

Yea I need to replace the vacuum line for the cruise control. Keeps splitting and popping off. Idle drops low enough that the alt doesn't spin fast enough.

Yea, I need to replace mine. I've done that twice now and it keeps splitting. Wouldn't happen to know the inner diameter of that line would ya. It's looks a little bigger than the other vac lines it seems.

It's looks a little bigger than the other vac lines it seems. I ordered the blue 5/32" vac lines from ebay and worked just fine......still need to know the size for the bigger hoses.

Been using washer fluid line with success but was going to replace all the lines that operate the 4wd as well as any others I can find.

redraif, Happen to saw a 1999 3.0 Montero at the yard and had the same type of evap solenoid and that "check valve' thingy on the line, hose routing was consistent as mine.....roo bad, I forgot to inspect closely that "valve" since I was busy talking to this guy who works in lockheed martin, he hitchiked on my golfcart and happen to be tinkering on his 02 3.0 montero as well.....coincidentally he was also in the yard in search for a MAF sensor,lol......he was a handyman himself but was so glad that I was able to share him some info that I learned from this forum as well....

Nah I don't, I will look though. It was just some generic line at autozone.
