Yeah, I liked a lot receiving these pictures of the work done! :grin:  It's just that hose that needs fixing now. :popcornsoda:

Thanks mate! After all this time I'm really looking forward to get it back and then get it tuned. :party:

One of the options on the table is just getting a silicon hose to replace the cracked hose.

Let's see what my mechanic decides to do. The space available isn't much and the oil catch can hoses rub with the carbon canister hose, which my mechanic doesn't like. :confused:

Shoduchi:
Talking with my mechanic today, he's going to cut the tip of the plastic connector and connect a silicon hose (cut to fit) to replace the OEM hose. That should be enough for the hose to curve down and not be pressed by the oil catch can hoses.

Then he'll be doing road tests and if all goes well, I'll just have to wait another week. :pomppomp:

Brakes and suspension were already tested before starting working in the engine. :smiley:
