vac. port off the manifold

[malloynx]

i broke the vac port coming out the firewall side of the intake manifold. does anyone know the size of the thread or where i might be able to get a new one?

don't know but maybe you could get a new tube welded onto the old threaded fitting

edit: ↓ or brazing

just broke the vacuum tube off of the fitting?
ich... um, either go to toyota for it, or i mean... someone has to have extras... if i did, i'd gladly send you one. but i only have one of 'em.....

i think you're stuck with toyota on this one. i often wondered if you could use a brake line fitting and some brake line, but i dont think there's anything behind the threads to hold a bubble flare or whatever kind of flare you would use...

welding wouldnt work, more like brazing

I know this isn't much help, but my boost gauge install kit came with a fitting that was just the right size for it. So it is possiable to find a replacement other than Toyota(though they may still be your best bet). I'm not sure what size it was though, so not much help here sorry.

If it's the tiny one it's a 1/8" BSP/4mm barb.

My N/A parts car should have one I could rob. I probably won't get much for a N/A intake, so why not take it off. Not absolutely sure it's there, but $7 shipped would be enough if I have it.

YES IJ it's the little black barb in the back of the manifold

Just go to a hardware store and get a brass nipple with 1/8 inch pipe thread. It should go right in and cost about 50 cents
