|  HELP, locating vacuum caps... Ok, I did the Air Injection System removal (other brands may call it something else), and to dress it up, I need 5/8" vacuum caps to cover up the bolt heads. I also need 3/4" caps for another project. So, to my question, where can I find these? I called Auto Zone, Advance Auto, and Pep Boys asking for vacuum caps (or some call bypass plugs) and the largest size they have is 3/8. I searched and searched the web, but came up with NOTHING. Are these that hard to find? Someone must have found them somewhere, because every instruction I have seen calls for them to be used to dress up the removal. I asked all the parts counter people for 5/8", and they all came back with "That big?, don't know what you mean".

| Any parts store should have them in "HELP!" products, I think they are called water pump caps. They come 2 to a pack, 5/8 & 3/4 for about $3
