a little while ago i eliminated my vacum hose but i left the metal tubeing part on. i dont know what i was thinking 2day but i decided id take it off and try and get the anti freeze tubing or w.e and the vacum hose tubing apart. welt this plan failed miserbly and im left with a nice little hole in my anti freeze tubing. i have nooo clue what the actual name is for this hole little part. can some1 plzz help me and give me a estimate of price? heres some pix







there a little crappy but eh u should get the general idea?

I'm lost as to where that came from and what vacuum tube you disconnected?

 

[irving216]

i kinda figured that might b a problem, 2moro ill take a pic but ill also try to explain.
the vacum hose goes from the air filter to a metal tubing (pic i posted) that is maybe a foot? little longer? and then back into hose. i dont know how much good thatll do you.

I went and checked it out on my car. I know what that is:
HONDA PARTS UNLIMITED... YOUR SOURCE FOR OEM HONDA AND ACURA PARTS AND ACCESSORIES!!!

It's number 14. The top tube connects to the PCV valve to the intake. The bottom one goes from the back of the throttle body to under the throttle body.

FOUND SOLUTION
just going to run a hose and forget bout paying 44 or w.e i was going to for that metal peice haha shouldnt look too abd etheir probably make it look like theres less stuff

I wouldn't advice to substitute the hard-plumbed coolant line(s) to just a regular hose; they're there for a reason :yes:

 

[irving216]

ya welt corse theres a reason but i looked at it and it doesnt look like it would hurt any.

 

[irving216]

got the hose, it works fine

 

[bfarrell01]

I thought that tube was a coolant hose...maybe im wrong

 

[irving216]

idk i think it was pointless to have that metal hoseing tho, took more room

 

[pnoye2]

got the hose, it works fine

I'm glad to hear it worked out for you :thumbsup:

It's 2 metal tube together. The reason why its there is to keep the hoses from bouncing up and down. And it'll keep it away from the motor or else its gonna create a hole and have coolant all over the place. That tube makes the hoses hold its position. Like I said, the bottom tube passes coolant through it and the top tube passes air from the air filter tube to the top rear valve cover.

just a question is it important that that tube is connected to the intake?

because i just recently installed CAI on my legend and i dont have that metal tube that was plugged into the stock intake plugged in to the cai

If you want, use a small breather filter.

ya i got a small breather filter, and i made the hose a little longer so that it wouldnt b too tight and touch the engine or notin
