hard plastic vacuum lines

okay. I have a 1989 Bronco 351 C6. On the drivers side of the engine, right next to where the coil mounts, you have some hard plastic vacuum lines, I believe one is green, one is yellow, one is black, and I'm not sure about the others. They route behind the engine, and a couple go to the vacuum canister, one goes to the EGR valve, etc. Anyways, one of mine (the yellow one) is cracked in half, and I believe the one going to the EGR valve is leaking. I was just going to buy some soft rubber vac lines and replace them, but the one end is molded, it appears. Does anyone have a work around on how to repair these or do you know where I can get new ones. I figure any thing from the junkyard would be cracked, and to be honest, if I don't have to go to a dealership, I would rather not.

Thank you in advance for any help you can give me,

Mike

Those years had EGR? Did they do away with it afterwards or was it still on there right up to 96?

You can run rubber lines, Color just makes it easier to trace.
