    sometimes its just the simplest thing for a car to run better.

    Did what you guys said and, and it ran exceptionally better...but it still had a sputter...

    so i said fcuk it and changed the spark plugs as well, and this motor just purrs like a kitten!!!

    Thanks for all the input everyone.


    BTW if anyone in the PWN needs 19/32" vacuum hose, i have about 4 ft of it ;)

    BEER ME BARTENDER!

    yeeeeesir!

    Ok sweeet, imma give this a shot tomorrow!!

    do you even have to remove the manifold then if your replacing these hoses?? I took the manifold off already to remove the heater plate. other than that, everything is pretty straight forward?


    sorry for so many questions

    You guys are the best though, seriously. if this fixes my car, im in debt to you....beer on me!

    valve cover to underside of TB
    &
    ICV to lower intake boot...

    now my main question is...
    i bought 19/32" vacuum hoses. but im looking at the routes of cracked hoses, and i noticed junctions for each set of vacuum paths... do these junctions still need to be a part of the vacuum route, or can i just route the new hoses from the valve cover straight to the throttle body, and same for the ICV and intake route?



    HELPPP!

    yeah you can route it straight, there shouldnt be any issue with that...ive seen it done like that on m42 club....

    Yes I can take a picture just added a hose to hook it up it goes under the throttle body and the icv goes in the boot! It should idle better!
    not all m42s have a hose connection on the TB. FYI


    and you should clean the mess under the intake. if one hose is cracked its likely that others are cracked. the spiderweb of hoses a bunch of places it can leak both air and coolant.

    If you've got cracked CCV hoses you've got vac leaks.
