Keep the hard plastic tubing as it lasts forever and don't bother with the cloth covered stuff. I believe 7/64 standard vacuum tubing is the correct size. For the tee between the warm up (auxiliary) air regulator and manifold the small connection had a restrictor in it. I don't remember the size but it is important as it meters air from the tank vapor recovery system.

My engine has combination of rubber/cloth vacuum tubing and hard plastic vacuum tubing. Can I go with the rubber/cloth vacuum tubing -- looks like 3 mm ID. Another suspect point was a fitting that connect a small diameter hard plastic tube with the tube coming from the axillary air regulator and the outlet end of the connector goes to the intake manifold. Where can I get the connector? I had dummied up a connector many years ago and I think it has sprung a leak Engine in 1.9L in 1984 Vanagon Thank you, John
