I've been getting a CEL for P1486 Evap Leak Monitor Pinched Hose and low and behold I actually saw a pinched hose.
Anyone know what part this rubber hose is? I'd like to find a replacement. Probably a generic one as I've seen Porsche hoses priced at $85!
It's connected to an aluminum line. I'm not sure if it's moving liquid or air. I'm guessing air if it's EVAP but I'm not sure if that is what's causing the CEL. Just know that the hose shouldn't be flattened like it is.
Appreciate any help!
The rubber part is actually flattened and needs to be replaced. I measured the aluminum tube to know the inner diameter I need.
You can replace that rubber hose with plastic hardline.
I purchased some hard plastic air brake line from Amazon ($17 for 16ft) (5/8th OD) and used a heat gun to heat up the ends and slipped them over the aluminum line/Solenoid Barb. I also heated it and bent the line so it follows the same factory bend.

Reason: EVAP to Vacuum Line
