What's the vacuum line size that goes to the vacuum reservoir?

Does anybody know what's the vacuum line size that goes to the vacuum reservoir in the driver side fender? All my vacuum lines were shot and the only label I found that was readable on one of them was 7/32 but that seem a bit too big for the reservoir. I am assuming that it is 5/32 but wanted to check here first.

5/32 sounds believable. There's LOTS of sizes under the hood of any car though, and they can vary alot from one application to another; fortunately, as long as the lines fit at the ends, it doesn't really matter what size you use to replace them.

What did your digital calipers say when you measured the hose nipple?
