1994 Lt1 optispark orifice/filter replacement
I need the optispark vacuum line orifice/filter does anyone know where I can get one or make one? I read on another forum a person melted and flatten one end of a vacuum connector and used a piece of metal wire to poke a hole restricting the flow. Is the orifice .010?

I'm down hard and based on the gunk I got out of the old vacuum line, don't dare run it without a filter. Any ideas on where to go for a simple in-line plastic filter???
I used a really small inline gas filter. worked for me.
