WOW I THINK I FOUND MY ROUGH IDEL
I was looking at my car at school trying to find why my car is dying at red lights and have a rough idle. so i started looking at lines and i notice two vacumn lines broke going from my egr valve to the egr soloid [ look at pic] I need to know if they would sell this at a local parts store. thanks

oh, those stupid hard brittle plastic lines... I've never seen 'em at a parts store, but i've never really looked either.
GM should be able to get 'em for you if a parts store doesn't have them.

Screw those plastic lines if you're able to replace them with a regular vacuum hose. Cheaper and more forgiving when you're working on the engine. One wrong bump to an old plastic line and it's busted.

Look in the aisle with the "HELP" products and miscellaneous fittings. You can just use soft lines like mentioned before. They usually will have tees, wheys, strait and 90* connectors, just make a diagram if you don't know where each one goes. Sometimes you will see those hard lines as well.

Buy some steel brake line and bend it yourself. Easy to do, and it makes for a bulletproof connection.
