These vacuum plugs from Z1E have performed well for me. :)

Z1E's VacPlugs

Those look good and original, but a little rich for my blood. I use scrap fuel line with a ball-bearing shoved in. Just make sure the bearing is too big to go into the pipe. Sometimes I cut the head off a stainless allen screw and press that in. I have boat loads of those we throw away at work.

Z1E plugs are worth the investment. They're made of the better material of the OEM plugs. Auto Zone/HELP plugs just don't last, dry rot quickly. Ask me how I know. They are easier and cheaper to get, so if you must use them, a little redundancy works well to make permanent. Cover them with the smaller black plastic furniture leg covers available at any good hardware store. Fill these halfway with black silicone first, push in, wipe off excess. After dry, are reusable. Looks good and protects rubber plugs from UV at fraction of the cost of the good stuff. Stephen
