They don't show on my phone either when i embed them. I just see the u2b tags and the hashed link.

It really does clean it up so it looks like it should have from the start. The factory grill is weird looking.

I don't even see that, that's why I asked

Yea the stock grill is best described as a egg crate

Looks good hemp! I agree about the stock grill!

That's what it looks like on my phone. Tapatalk sucks sometimes.

Is it coming from the hose or what it's tied into or can he even tell?

The noise is coming from the hose and when I kink or punch the hose it stops, I don't know if it's the hose or hearing it their as like a weakest point in the vacuum system that's what has been driving me crazy

The only thing I k ow to do it spray some short bursts of Barrymans B12 with the red spray hose on it to try to pin point it or as dumb as this might sound rig up opposite end of hose to the hose end of a vacuum to try to pull a harder vacuum on in an attempt to feel where it is sucking with you hand. I have no clue if that will work but to me it would be like pulling a vacuum on an ac system.

MikeMoach · 09-27-2013, 09:28 PM

I tried carb cleaner on the connections but not on the hose will try that tomorrow

Not sure I understand what you mean about using a vacuum, do you mean disconnect it from the catch can and put that end into a vacuum and try to feel it that way?

Haha. Yeah, that's what he meant. Pretty clever, but i'd be nervous doing that. I have no idea what a vacuum cleaner would do to the EVAP and PCV systems. Who knows what the parts are capable of handling, or what kind of sucking power your vacuum would have.

Yeah, I don't know that it will work but it's worth a try.

thahemp · 09-27-2013, 09:51 PM

I would cut a big hole in whatever you use to attach the vacuum. You can always tape over whatever you need to.

And by big hole, I mean pretty much the diameter of whatever hose opening you are attaching to.

MikeMoach · 09-27-2013, 09:58 PM

What ill do is take that hose off completely and tape one end closed and tape the other to the vacuum so I can isolate the hose completely and be certain I don't do anything more to this car

thahemp · 09-27-2013, 10:09 PM

Oh! Maybe that is what he meant. Much better than what I was imagining.
