Default vacuum connections........

I'm swapping a B18A1 ('93 teg) into a cx civic ('92). The fuel return outlet on the fuel pressure regulator is larger than the original one ane the fuel hose won't hook up. Has anyone else found this to be a problem and what did you do? Also, I can't seem to find the pressure reg. solenoid valve for it in my car either. Any thoughts? Thanks.

BTW I couldn't find any answers using search

i put an h22a4 in my '92 civic VX. I cant imagine that the fuel return outlet on any B series motor is bigger than that of an h22, and im sure the VX hose is the same size as CX. The way I did it was to spray the outlet with a little silicone grease, and than use a hairdryer to heat up the hose. It was still a royal pain in the *** and a really tight fit, but I got it on there. try my method and dont give up

Hey thanks Dreamer. I will try some o-ring lube or something like that with a hairdryer.
