Anyone know a decent source for Volvo vacuum hoses other than the dealer.
Couldn't find at IPD or FCP groton. Need some 6.4mm and 3mm hose for my 245.

thanks Howard

6.4mm is just a fancy name for 1/4" internal diameter. 6.4mm / 25.4
mm/inch = 0.25 inches = 1/4 inch.

True metric sized hoses are sold in even mm sizes.

Any auto parts store should be able to sell you 1/4" internal diameter
vacuum hose.

Thanks. Went in to my Kragen. While waiting at the parts counter for help I
saw a1 foot length 1/4 inch fuel/vacuum hose just sitting there. When the
counter guy got to me I said this is what I want and he said take it to the
front and check out. Actually kind of bizarre that it was just sitting there
pre cut. It was the right size and worked out fine. Looked studier than the
OEM line it has replaced. $1.29 total cost.


Thanks for the info
