Vacuum line replace?

[SvedeBringer]

Im doing the vacuum lines on my Rocco today, but Ive been having trouble finding a thorough how-to guide on it. Anyone have a link to a 16v vac line replace thread? Thanks!

I bought a roll of new cloth covered vac hose last year and just went through replacing a bunch Looks good. Just replace a piece at a time to lessen confusion on placement.

Well....after using started fluid to test each line, it turns out none of my vac lines are bad, no rpm difference at all. Im having a fuel/air ratio problem right now, about 25% of the time, if Im stopped, and then start to move, my rpms will drop pretty low, the engine will sputter, and I cant move. If I apply slightly more gas with the throttle, and don't try to put it in gear, and then wait a sec, it will correct itself and return to normal rev level. I had a bad ISV, but thanks to a local forum (fatDUBS) I found a new one for free, which alleviated a great deal of idling troubles, but it still does it occasionally, like I said. Im thinking of doing a CIS-E rebuild and cleaning next, unfortunately bad gas was ran through it right before I bought it. Thoughts?

How old is your transfer fuel pump?

If it's a VDO pump, replace it with Pierburg.
