Putting in my CAI there is no tube where I can fit the cruise control tube. There is only the openings for the throttle and engine. Is it alright to leave the cruise control unplugged or do I have to remove the wiring and everything? I don't want to leave the tube hanging in my engine bay, can I pull it off or what? Help appreciated

 

why are you unplugging your cruise control. that should have nothing to do with your intake.

yea....did u get it for the right model?

 

You should not have to touch your cruise control or cruise control hoses when you are installing an intake system. Look again at your cruise control hoses and follow where they lead. I believe you are misidentifying the tube. Just take off the stock airbox and stock intake tube from the throttle body. Then remove the hose connecting to the valve cover. Then you should be able to install your new intake.

 

Can you show us a pic of your engine bay? I believe you might have the cruise control on the wrong side...

 

I hope I posted this picture right. You might have a problem seeing it as I use Geocities and the bandwidth is VERY low. However I believe you all might be right about the cruise control. My brother was telling me thats what one of the hoses were but he could very well be wrong he isn't a mechanic afterall. Anyways, the intake I have only has two ports and from the picture you can see there are 3 on the hose. Two occupied by two small hoses and the third by a larger one which runs under a smaller hose. The large hose goes to the engine and the two small ones connected to what seems to be the fuel injector. One small hose looks to be the throttle as it is connected directly to the lever but the others I don't know exactly where they fit in. If someone could explain this to me, and tell me what I should do with the two hose ports on the intake I would greatly appreciate it. The intake is for something like 98-94' Integra's and mine is a 91' so I'm assuming it will work. Otherwise I will return it.

 

ok man the pic is only a red x. and what year is your car. you should only have to disconect one hose from your stock air tube and box. and its the one that goes to the valve cover.

 

Ok I busted out the Acura repair book...At the top end of the hose there are 3 tubes that run into it. One from the AIR BOOST VALVE, another from the DASHPOT DIAPHRAGM, both connected to the hose right next to eachother. The third comes from the engine with I guess is the valve cover. This is the pic reposted as well so it may or may not work. If anyone wants to try I can send it through AIM, ICQ or email. (I just put [img.]"picture"[/img.] without the period right?

 

if you tell us what year the car is it will help.

 

Right. It is 1991....automatic transmission if that makes a difference.
