Was reading post. Replacing factory lines as well. I took part number 15635936 up to dealer and its a sway bar link. Not the vacuum line setup. Did I read something wrong or was there another side conversation. Thx.

They probably discontinue the vacuum lines. Notice the post was 2011 and the number may come way before that post.
I will get the rubber vacuum lines from any part store, just make sure it is the same size.

Just went through this for CA Smog Test. My unused vacuum line had settled onto the exhaust manifold below the turbo and melted. I repaired it with a piece of Viton hose which worked perfectly. Second time I had repaired the vacuum lines that way. Otherwise, they're a dealer part that runs about $35.

I used copper lines and a tubing bender.

The last time I looked for vacuum lines, I could not find any anywhere. Do you have a part number from the dealer?

No, I do not have the part #. I only need it to pass smog. The last one I bought should be on the engine from the '95, but it's sitting in a military crate and I'm not going to pull that heavy lid off it.

I thought I checked all dealers last time I needed a set of vacuum lines and could not find any, anywhere. I was told by all they were discontinued

I found out more since that thread.

95 and older Vin F is NLA I think I got the last 5 out of Canada.

96+ Vin F IIRC was still available.

No idea on VIN S stuff.
