Bad Hose

[glasersil]

This hose is starting to fall apart. It's attached to the purge canaster/valve. I'm going to the track tomorrow, If this leaks will this affect anything?

it does connect eventually to the intake, but the leak will be minimal. that is the fuel vapor solenoid. the fuel vapor vulcanises the rubber and will make it hard to remove from the solenoid. when you replace it, use a razor blade to cut it off the solenoid nipple. i tried to pull the hose off and i broke the solenoid, and i had to get a new solenoid.

Agreed. I ended up replacing all of that run of line too. Be prepared for the lines at the charcoal cannister (inside the passenger fender, under the antenna base) to look like dog crap too.

Good luck.
