HELP... Question with replacing vacuum hoses

Some of my solenoids have broken loose from the mounting rack. How do you remount them if the clips are broken? Any "creative" ideas welcomed as well. Thanks in advance.

Perhaps super glue or two-part epoxy.

If you break some solenoids and need some, let me know. I took em all off the rats nest for the non-seq mod. I'll give them to you if you need em.

High Temp Silicone gasket maker (copper colored). It will hold up to almost anything except gas or oil bath and it provides some vibration insulation. It can be cut away with a razor knife if required. Just put a blob like a toothpaste blob and set the part in it (don't squeeze it all out from under it) then let it setup over night.
For all the work required to get to it to do this I would just buy a new one $50.00 and replace it.
Good luck

I don't need em anymore and I don't feel right selling little stuff like that. It's no biggie. Just like to help other owners out.
