Are you replacing the entire line or just the part bu the AC compressor?

If you are trying to replace the entire line with the intake in....wont happen. Been there. The only way to do it is to cut the new line in half and then splice it together with a hose & clamps. Getting the intake manifolds off with the engine in....is possible but it is going to be a lot of work, more then you might think and chances are you will need new intake gaskets & 1 or more injector seals by the time you are done.

You will also end up braking some/if not all the original vacuum lines. It happens, they are old, very thin/crappy plastic so have some vacuum hose, connectors, T's, etc.
