Help Identify Leaking/cracked hoses
« on: July 14, 2010, 03:48:47 PM »
Hi guys/gals.

I was researching some threads about replacing old cracked and leaking vacuum hoses and I figured, that I should inspect mine before I ID what needs to be replaced. I took the liberty of uploading them below for you all to see.
Any idea why one of them would have oil on it?


Can anyone ID what this hose is for? It has some cracks in it and I want to replace it.


I have more pictures in my photo set of other parts of the car if you are interested in viewing. There is even a whole section of recently replaced suspension parts. Here.

The oil is from oil vapors being drawn from the crank case.

The hoses going to the metal lines are your fuel lines.

Its crankcase ventilation. Do it all at once and save yourself the trouble of pulling the manifold over and over. See my signature.
Sold but not forgotten

This is whats wrong with your car.
