Does anyone know the sizes and lenghts of the vacuum lines on a Slant?

I want to replace them all and I want to order them tomorrow from the auto parts store while at work.

Just buy 6 feet each of 3/16", 1/8", 3/32", and 5/32". If you want to do the PCV hose as well, buy 3 feet of 3/8" fuel line hose.

Thanks!

One more question. On my Slant, I have a hose that comes off the top of the intake manifold and goes... well nowhere right now. I have one hose that runs off the carb to the vacuum advance and another for the PCV, but for the life of me, I can't figure out where the hose from the manifold goes.

Until my books get here, I'm lost :?:

On my '73 duster it's connected to a round vacuum container deal on the passenger fender. I think that thing must be a check valve and vacuum holder to maintain vacuum to power the Heater vent controls because it also has a hose that goes throught the firewall coming off of it.

There used to be one going to the vacuum amplifier for the EGR system too.

What year is it?
Do you have power brakes?
