Hi Rennlisters-
I'm in the middle of a pretty extensive engine bay refreshening project and I need your help to keep it going. I would like to know approximately how long this hose is and what it would take to get to the other end.



I will post pictures when it's all done!
Thanks
Ian

 

take off your driver side fender, that hose goes to a carbon canister inside the fender well.

 

the whole fender?

 

You can also just turn the wheel all the way to the left, remove the driver's side tire and it's right there inside the fender with enough room to reach around and unmount it... trust me, I've replaced the stupid auto antenna behind it twice.

 

I think he has a later car requiring him to remove the fender liner first. No bigy but still a bit awkward.

 

what kind of tubing are you redoing the vacuum lines with?

 

ok, ok, i've looked it up.. not a big deal to pull the fender.

how long is the hose so i can go pick up a replacement before i take the fender off?

p/s i'm using lindsey racing vacuum hose, it's uber thick

 

You don't need to pull the fender, late or early car. The charcoal canister is accessible.

 

When you take the fender off, be careful, because the adhesive holding it to the body is sometimes very sticky, just take care not to bend the fender, take your time removing the edge on the top.
Hose length I would estimate 3 feet should get the job done, but that might be a bit too much. Anyone know for sure?

 

Yeah, shouldn't need to pull the fender - pain in the *** anyways. Just pull the wheel and skirt (if its a late car) and there it is.

 

nice, thanks everyone
