Canada`	I just replaced my waterpump which was making my car overheat, and I guess that when my engine was extreamly hot it burned right through my vaccum hose. Anyway I tried to buy one from the ford dealership and the were going to charge me 80cdn. If I pick one on from the salavge yard can I take any vaccum hose off any year contour with a V6 Duratac (94-00) thanks for your help!! my tour

If you're not sure when boneyard shopping take old part along. Consider also repair using hockey tape. 98 Mystique LS v6 atx 110,000km 97 Contour LX v6 atx 125,000km stock CD on LS, cass on LX spoiler, tinted windows on LS only 4 wheel discs on LX only All other available options on both

I just changed a cut vaccum hose that was probably the reasin my car was pinging... (i hope.. i am still testing it). during the hose fixing I had to disconnect the battery (to unplug sensors) and now my AC and my Clock are not working... Geez... I fix something and something else happens... anyway... if you go to "Zetec" you see that I was also complaining about the price of the vaccum hose.. Ford dealer wanted $98 for it !!! I just "fixed" it myself... It wasn't burned though... it had a cut.... CT - USA * 96 Contour Gl 2.0 5 Speed Manual / Clarion CD Change 8" Subwoofer & Sony Amp (LOUD !!)
