Unhappy Vacuum hoses.

Can somebody please tell me how many goddamn vacuum hoses there are on an 87TII?
Also, I found one that goes from the Pressure sensor (to turbo I presume). It hard as a rock on the turbo side, and there seems to be a little metal washer looking thing inside the hose about 1/3 of an inch from the end. Can I just use any ol' hose to replace that?

Thanks.

Hey Autocrash, where are you?

25. Does your car not have the vacuum line schematic attached to the underside of the hood????? Get a manual and read the fuel section and you can figure out where each and every line goes to.

Also try searching for "vacuum hose" or something because there have been many threads on this in the past but I hope they are still there.

I'm quite serious. On each of my cars, there is a diagram of the vacuum hose routing pasted to the interior of the hood. Its the only way I ever could figure out where they went on my 82rx. That damn HAYNES manual sure did not help for flip. And the factory manual schematic is..................well, inadequate. But if you know what each solenoid does in life, you can figure it out. Sorry, they are not color coded and next to impossible to describe online where each goes.
