I actually used one of the hoses from the eacv, just did a little rerouting. Works great, if I can find pics I'll post them up.

 

 

my sending unit is mechanical not electrical so the sending unit is about 2 inches long and about the width of a pen so the t wont work do u have any other ideas?

I stated it above, between the eacv hoses. I have a crx, but coolant hoses are coolant hoses. Go to your local parts stock ( not an autozone or pepboys ) or local store where 1 guy owns it, and tell him what your doing and he will set you up with the fittings. Your gonna need one way fittings ( barb fittings ) to slip the hoses onto.

 

just curious how long is your sending unit

Are you actually reading what I type, because I already explained mine was the same length. It was about 2 inches, get a t fitting and thread it in there.

See the long sending unit in the pic, thats the one I used. Yours might be a tad different, but if you use the same concept I posted, you will be fine.
