Metal vacuum tube from upper intake to fuel rail regulator 84-85

[edsel45]

Looking for the small metal vacuum tube that runs from the front of the upper intake to the fuel rail regulator for an 84 or 85. My car currently just has a rubber hose but I know that a metal tube connected with small rubber hose on both ends was used from the factory. Trying to make sure everything is factory correct under the hood.

This right?

[edsel45]

Mark, that is definitely the part I am looking for, I appreciate the response. This was the only thing under the hood of my 11k 84 that was not right, I am striving to make sure everything is factory correct.
I will PM you about cost and my address.

Mark, after further research, I realized that the part you have is for an 85-1/5 to 86, since the 84-85 had a different upper intake and fuel pressure regulator placement, the parts are slightly different. When I look at engine bay photos the 84-85 tube has a larger radius bend, where as the 86 tube is more of a 90 degree bend and has the longer connection hose to the fuel pressure regulator. Darn! I got my hopes up! Anyway, if you happen to come across the 84-85 version let me know.

Hi,

Is this it (in the middle, ignore the mess, that is what I started with on my 84 Capri)?

No. That's the ~3/8"(~10mm) tube that goes from the same upper intake fitting to the vacuum tree on the firewall. He's loking for the ~1/8" hose/tube set that goes to the small tune on that same fitting to the FPR.

Chris, as Mike said it is the smaller tube from the Upper intake vacuum port to the FPR.

Attached are two shots of an 84 engine with a good reference of the tube. 84388439

I have one from a 84 SVO. Don't need it anymore.

I'm trying to do the same think....feel free to share some pictures of your progress. It's always nice to have reference pictures.

[edsel45]

Yes that is it! I will PM you.

I will definitely post pics of my engine bay when I get a chance, my car has 11K on it.
