My intake manifold had a plastic nipple that ran the brake booster on my truck. I somehow managed to break that nipple and need to find another one. does any one know where I can find that nipple? I am not sure I really want to try driving that truck without the brake booster working. Thank you for any help!

Was it connected to the #6 intake runner?


If so, I believe it's threaded as NPT (not sure of the size), and you should be able to go to the hardware store to get something that will work....

I want the nipple that is on the #6 intake runner, it had at least one small branch off for a vacuum line for elsewhere on the engine. Unfortunately the auto parts stores don't seem to have it available

That's a junkyard item, some of the late slants I've pulled out of trucks lately were NF threaded instead of NPT like the Pre-80's.

The good thing is that these are the same on similar era V-8's so find a 1980-1990 Dodge 318 and pull the tree from it...
