Brake booster vacuum hose. What type?

Post by velozi »

I have a regular cloth braided brake fluid hose but its in bad shape. Does it need to be replaced with a break fluid resistant hose? Or can it be a regular fuel grade one?

As far as I know, no brake fluid travels inside the hose to degrade an all-purpose hose.

It has to be Vacuum hose I think i used 1/2 from Car Quest labeled as Booster Hose for mine as the Fiat dealers want to sell you it by the foot at $10.00 + a foot. I think I paid 6.00 for 2 feet of it.
