IMG 8577  Too damn hot in the house. IMG 8578  Koba seems optimistic something good is about to happen. IMG 8580  A nap. That's not bad. IMG 8581  Check and make sure your clear lines aren't cracked, they said. IMG 8583  A. No longer clear. B. Beyond cracked. Completely fallen apart. IMG 8584  So these are some nice big vacuum leaks. It's a wonder the thing would idle at all.
IMG 8585 IMG 8587  They just crumble to bits. IMG 8588  Trying to get a good image of the brand name on here. IMG 8589  It's the same as the logo here. IMG 8590  More crumbly badness. IMG 8591  Air box is in the way. Not too bad to remove.
IMG 8594  Another broken hose up here and no sign of where most of it is, or what it connects to. Hmm. IMG 8595  This port is right up on the throttle body. IMG 8596 IMG 8597  Don't forget now - supposed to be clear. IMG 8599  All this trouble for lines that are plugged anyway? IMG 8601  Was there some kind of evap/emissions stuff here once?
IMG 8602 IMG 8603  These were meant for service techs to hook up to for a measurement. Rarely used. IMG 8604  New hose. None of this clear silliness. Good old Honda rubber. IMG 8605  Stuff. IMG 8606  Hose clamps not quite big enough for the slightly thicker rubber hose. We measure and hope we can get something slightly bigger at a local store. IMG 8608  Not much difference between closed and open.
IMG 8611  A clue where some of these other lines go. IMG 8612  Just looks like a way for oil mist to drain back out of the airbox.
