Was told by my local dealer parts department the vacuum check valves for my 97 are discontinued. Guess it's time to start hunting around if I want anything other than defrost

 

They should have other, larger check valves that are commonly used (even at stealerships) as replacements for the discontinued part. You may have to do a little fitting fiddling to get them installed but they work just fine.

 

Been discontinued for several years.

Go to NAPA as they took over the part. http://www.napaonline.com/napa/en/p/...349/NDP7301349

Although this store shows out of stock. I got one at Napa a couple of years ago. Worst case you get the universal one and change the hoses.

 

Is this what you're looking for?

Yes it is, thanks for the help with that translation. I can now confidently order amazon prime $5.01 delivered, way easier than driving over to the stealer.
I don't post too often but can always count on the group here to come through. Thanks again guys!

Today I bought the Huges FI Air gap intake, hopefully it'll get here before the weekend so I can install that and my new set of 4 control arms. I hope my truck knows how much I love it

 

I'm thinking about that f1 airgap as well. Let us know how it runs afterwards.

 

I might be selling mine if I can get the setup I want. I'll know in a few months.

 

I'm new to the forum but I guess this as good a place as any for my first post. I blew up my tranny last week and since I'm not driving my truck I got bored and took a sawzall to my spare doors and came up with the beginnings of half doors. I'm going to fiberglass them in and add marine speakers but for two hours and a couple beers they don't look horrible... not good lol but not horrible
