hey all kind of a newbie question,
but i need help finding a part, to split a vacuum source into 3, so i can properly supply vacuum to my fuel pressure regulator. i have/can find 2 way splitter but i need a 1 to 3 way T or tree or something(totaling 4 ports). any ideas, i was thinking about using two Y' splitters connected but that is tacky and i have to buy a whole box of Y's for two splitters and probably just ending up tossing/losing them.....
anyone know of a small vacuum tree that has four ports, or a such a splitter;autozone does not have anything like this, only the regular Y splitters.
thanks

ps. it hass to be a small splitter, to fit a hose that goes to the fpr.....

You could replace your vacuum block on the firewall with this..
86-93 Mustang Billet Vacuum Block
It has extra ports you can either run a blockoff or use with.

those help parts are great, can i get them local or do i have to order.... 10.00 kind of defeats the point.... and those metal/billet vacuum trees are great but 60-90.00 bucks for that?? no way.....when the stock works just fine and saves weight

Go to ACE Hardware and visit the plumbing section. All my vacuum lines are plumbed using brass barb/pipe fittings, I'm sure you can come up with something.

so you want help with finding a part, but you don't want to pay for it?

You should be able to get them at your local parts store.

You can buy those vac blocks a lot cheaper at harbor freight.

yes exactly it, i like paying 10.00 for something that cost about half a penny to make......sorry there is no way to spend 10.00 on that piece.....

as far as a vacuum block? i did not know harbor freight sold them, i was just at that store and walked around for an hour just to see anything i could use.....what section would they be in??
