hard brittle vacuum hoses breaking


Recommended Posts

Is this typical? I am putting in a boost gauge and tapping into the hose at the front at the manifold by the round foam thing. The original hose from the foam piece to the manifold nipple broke while I was manipulating it.

 

It was rock hard and brittle.

155k miles on a 2005 LGT wagon. I'm wondering what other pieces are hard/brittle. Is this when people switch all the lines over to silicon vacuum lines?
