O2 Sensor and Vacuum Help?!?!?

[talonfreak96]

Hey fellow DSM drivers. I am looking for a vacuum line hose kit that will replace all my vacuum hoses. Does anyone know where i can get a kit that has all the hoses? I also need to replace my downpipe O2 Sensor (i am going to replace the catback one to) I know where to get them but i do not know how to install them though. Has anyone replaced the O2 Sensors on the 2g Talon Esi? If so can you help me out or is it best to go pick up the Haynes book at auto zone?

Thank-you
Your Fellow DSM Driver Tony

Nope. Never.

You just need the right socket for R/I of the O2. What makes you think you need to replace the rear? It's not doing anything other than making sure the front one works.

RRE (Road Race Engineering) has the "Larson Hose Kit." Top quality silicone hoses in all the sizes you need and a number of power-adding colors. Runs about $25 and ships fast as hell. I'd link you, but I think you are old enough to know how to use Google.

Dude. Here's the thing. If you can't afford to wait, then you need to get out there and search. Sitting in front of the computer waiting for a reply isn't getting you any closer to fixing the problem.

Sounds like you know you have a vac leak somewhere. Trace the leak (use a cigarette or something and watch the smoke around your hoses), and go to Autozone, Napa, Checker, etc. and buy a foot of plain, black replacement vac line. It will cost you about $2.

Have you checked the lines yet? The hard, plastic line across the back in particular?

you can also put some water in a spray botttle, or use carb or brake cleaner (be very careful with it though, flamable.) and light spray a hose where you think the vac leak is coing from, when you hear the car kind of stall out for a sec or change its not on account of where you sprayed its an indication that their is a whole where you just sprayed.

Driggs is right about gettin some plain black hose, It will cost you a lot less.

For the 02 sensors, just get under your car w/ a 22mm socket, and don't forget you'll probably want to twists the wires as you turn the wrench to get the socket out.
