Help with Plastic Hose from SAP!

[kingsti]

The plastic hose from the bottom of the secondary air pump (SAP) across the front of the engine to the valve keeps coming off the SAP. Has anyone else had this issue and if so what is the fix? Any help is appreciated.

never had that problem. If you can't get the hose to snap on, perhaps the clip is broken on the hose. I'd imagine you can either replace the plastic hose or install a rubber hose with hose clamps.

Yeah, you have to push that one on pretty good before it clicks in.

Thanks for your help!

Finally got it! Had to have someone hold against the SAP while i pushed the hose on. Plus I think when I was originally pushing it on I was holding it too close to the end so it wasn't snapping on. It helps if you are smarter than than the hose which I guess I'm not!

remember king, you only need to be 10% smarter than the object you are using.
