 ;D So true, Nick.. maybe I'm safe because they know I sold the old bus ;) but I figure if cable ties could hold vac hose on with +16psi of boost (not on the Omega, obviously) they could sure as heck hold vac hoses in place that are being sucked on by vacuum! ;D

.....waaaaaay over zealous Mr JB. I don't have anything holding my hoses on. :D


Although I would fit the correct clips if I had the pliers. One day.... :)

Replaced a door solenoid and a few odds and ends on another car, and cleaned the scuttle drain and refitted the lower screen rubber on the black estate...
