Does anbody manufacture a replacement vacuum advance line with the end fittings. I have a 61 BT7 and the vacuum advance line is kinked and plugged. I really don't want to use rubber hose.

Hi Michael, I think in most cases we simply make a new one using the old one as a pattern. Most auto supply places will have the 1/8" copper tubing and the corret size Olives to fit.--Fwiw---Keoke

Michael: I may be missing something but I ordered a vacuuum advance line from Moss and it came with the distributor end fitting (a brass hex nut). The other end is (unless your car is different than mine) a short rubber tube, also available from Moss and other vendors. If your car has a carb-side screw-on connection (?) I think that'd be easily fashioned using the Moss tube as a base.
