64K, you got the goodies out of thoses hoses.     I 1st changed mine at like 30K or so.

It started spitting at me on some throttle movements, so I went looking.

Huumm,, 10 years and 64K miles.. You got your monies worth from that line,, usually they do that in about half that time.. That looks like it came from #3,#4 or #6[boy, how did I figure that out !?] and as long as you replace them with a good quality line you won't have to worry for a long time..

i have read many post on the vac lines. was wondering how you know if the tic tic is the vac lines or a valve that needs adjusted. on my 98 tourer when stopped you can here a tic tic but with a little throttle it goes away so do i need to look at the lines or adjust the valves.
any info would be great
