Maybe you guys can help me fix the only two things wronge with my car besides the clutch lol

Heres the first:


I cracked the T connection there in that main vacume line. How can i fix this? Do I have to pull the top off the plemun?

Heres the second:


I have exhuast leaks around where the base of the tubes go into the manifold. Is there a way to fix this without buying a new manifold? And where can I get some of the heat shields around the spark plugs. Good idea. Thanks again

 

any parts store will have a vacuum kit that will have the "T" connector.

if you dont have emissions testing, take them out and the AIR pump off and plug the holes up. if you do, you may have to find find a sealer of some sort. i wouldnt think youd need a new manifold or anything, unless the threads are destroyed.

 

JBWeld em? I duno

 

For What Its Worth, I pulled those spark plug boot shields off when I got the car in 1994 and never put 'em back on. Didn't see a reason for 'em, and never had any problems with them missing.

Just make sure you put dielectric grease in the spark plug boots before connecting the plug wires- but you should be doing that anyway, with any car.

 

Thanks guys. So any other advice on those stupid egr lines? I can here it and it bugs the crap out of me

I tried get that vac line off today. It seems like its all one peice? Don't want to break it more. It just sits on there for now. Could it be glued maybe? Thans again
