Does anyone know why my B20 has 2 vacuum pipes coming from it?
I've gone and bust off one of the pipes (3rd one!!!!) do we need them both??

haha, best thing to do is go get one off a junk yard or get it form someone on here. i think part stores sell them also, sometimes.

Why'd you do that, lol
Read the shop manual and see if you can leave out one of them somehow. The vacuum advance is the same on your B20A1 as on the A20 but both of the engines is covered in the shop manual, just be sure to download all of the .pdf files. http://www.pauldesign.ru/honda/shopmanual.html

the reason you need to vacuum lines is because one is working when the car is cold and the other is working when the car is warm.
