Yesterday i was driving around and when I got home, i decided to look at my engine... I noticed a hose got scorched....

 

and this is where its connected to the full throttle body

 

and finally its connects to the air canister, can someone tell me how I can fix this problem from the full throttle body to the air canister?

 

replace the hose

unless somthing is making your manifolds glow hot enough to melt things

rich/lean?

what else is going on

 

maybe it got hot off the egr pipe?

That is the hose that goes to the purge canister. I broke mine. Just re-routed it using rubber flex line. You will need to cut the melted part off so that its a clean "cut". Then use rubber flex hose to patch it. Use tye wraps to hold the new hose away from anything.

 

Clogged cat?

 

did someone say scorched hose?

 

how come i dont get air out of the throttle body, from the scorched picture i just displayed?

 

Wow! what happened there????

 

where can i get rubber flex and tye wraps, and how come no air goes into my purge canister?

 

rubber hose can be bought at any parts store. You need to measure the od of that plastic pipe, and that will be what your ID of the rubber hose is. Or just a hair smaller for tight fit.

Tye wraps will be in the electrical section at same store.

Air does not always transfer between them two parts. It only happens when the ecm tells it too(notice elec wires on the purge tank?). Then also, the TB will SUCK air from the perge tank to put into the engine to burn

 

Plus the vacuum line block at the top of the throttle body is ported vacuum, it's not a constant vacuum.

They'll call that rubber hose either "vacuum hose" or "windshield washer hose", both are the same for what you need. Some places even sell replacement plastic vacuum line, but rubber hose is all you need to patch it up.

 

get some hard vacume line too. that way you can pull the hard line out of the vacume block and put it in there right. i just did all my vacume lines this weekend for about 20$

 

how do i know if the air canister is purging?

 

And where would i do the patching, because i want to know where it would be a good location to avoid scorching of the hose...

 

do u happen to have a picture on how u partched ur vacuum lines... can i use them metal tie downs, the ones dat tightened when u screw it with a phillips?

 

With a hose like that, it's not purging at all. Replace the hose. The canister only purges at cruise, not at idle or WOT. I think that you have to have a VSS signal to the computer showing over like 10mph or something for it to purge too.

 

someone mentioned in here about lean/rich, and my car does spit out that 44/45 code... i checked the oxygen sensor... its connected and its fine, id made sure it didnt scorch

 

REBELGQ, DO not use any type of fastener that will crimp down on the vacume lines. as for vacume hose routing, keep it as far away from heat as possible, it is really easy to do, just put the new on while you are taking the old off, and get yourself a box of 3 way connectors!

 

Are tye downs them plastic things that wrap around? and where could i get a box of 3 way connectors?

 

everything at local autoparts store

 

you can get the vacume hose and a kit of connectors from the local auto parts store for less than 30$ i just redid all of my vacume lines for about 18$ u need the 5/16 hose. that is 5/16 OD hose.
