You'll find full vacuum diagrams in the FSM, which you will find in the 2nd gen FAQ.

I want to say M14, but that might be wrong. It probably is. Best bet is to just take one to the fastener store and ask them to match.

You can always make your own if you can find the right size bolt. Drill a hole up the center, and one horizontally. Just be careful if clamping the threads, since that could cause a leak later.

Or apparently you can find them on ebay, hah. Found this M14 x 1.5mm:

That's just an example though. I'm not sure what the pitch is or if M14 is even right.

You must have a local hydraulic shop that can handle this. Failing that, a local fastener store. Just check the Yellow pages.

I just searched for the banjo size, and it's actually M16 x 1.5, not M14.
