My other car is a 2011 turbo Regal and I need to replace the vacuum/boost lines that go from the turbo and wastegate to a solenoid. It looks like regular vacuum hose but there is a red core to it. Does anyone know what makes that different and where I could find a source for it, of course I only need a few inches.
It is shown in this picture: https://rover.ebay.com/rover/0/0/0?mpre=htt...%2F183021942967 |

I am not really sure. Maybe its not rubber? I just recently read that real vacuum hose is measured in only /16th of an inch, but fuel line is in /8th inch. And vac hose is more rigid than fuel lines to resist collapse. So you ask for "9/16th vac hose" at the parts store so they don't give you fuel line (?).
