I'm feel sure its a 3/16" line...however, I figured a 3/16" brake line would work just as well since mine is missing. The "fittings fit" but to me the brake line sure looks smaller than the original ones I've seen on engines.
Is the brake line I.D. smaller....if it is will it work. Just small trifling things but I want to know!
Thanks

Just wanted to confirm the small line would provide enough vacuum. | | |
