The AIR tubes on the drivers side is broke. Where the actual hose connects to the metal and screws in, all the edges are broke off, so it won't screw in and it's just held together by some wire. I can't stand the sound of it nemore, so i was wondering if it is better to take all the AIR stuff off or relpace the air tube. Everything else on the car is stock and i'm thinking of selling it next spring so would it decrease it's value or ableness to sell? Thanks for your opinions,
If you have no emission inspection where you live just yank the tubes out and screw in some 1/4 pipe plugs (available at any hardware store) in the holes where they were
I really want to but i dont want someone coming and not wanting it b/c it's not stock. But i think your prolly going right in the end. Just less hassle for them thanks
Is this the car with a "new 5000 mile engine". If so then there goes stock. Unfortunately, unless these cars have everything 100% stock and extremely low miles, they are more or less worthless without mods. Get rid of AIR, its a pain in the ***.
Can anyone tell me what the size of bung would be ....if you needed to weld them into a set of headers to keep the stock smog stuff . ( not to hyjack but I figured I'd ask in here to )

They are not actually pipe plug threads. Pipe plugs are tapered, and the fittings on the AIR injection isn't.
Pipe plugs will work ok if you can't find the right ones.
D's89IROCZ I forget what they are, but I know someone that can tell me. I'll ask and post when I get a reply.
