    Anyone want to help?



    Guys, I've been contemplating for quite some time, getting rid of all the vaccuum lines on both of my DX's. Just don't really have the time, nor the ability to have anything go wrong b/c of the constant need to have a reliable car. If anyone nearby the CT area has done the removal, and wants to help out, I would greatly appreciate it.

    ....just wanted to toss that one out there to see......

    true, it's a hike. Nope, never done the vaccum removal despite the fact that I've had 4 3G's at one time or another.

    did you see my ITS ALIVE post just below this one...I got a few pics of my carb and everything....I thought I would never get my car runnin agian because I havent messed with carbs that much but it started up on the 3rd try(well it sat for 3days so I expected that lol) its so easy dude...I never expected it to be,but it was...it took me 2days to do it working off and on but it should only take around 4 or 5 hours to do...just make sure and get some extra vaccum line and ALOT of line connections and some little nipple cover things(lol)...just grab 2dozen or so diff ones at your auto parts store...its all good and worth the effort though!

    Umm I don't know on the adapter but it only fits the weber 32/36. And yeah they are similar. Same valve covers (got mine from a junk yard b/c I liked the Honda emblem on it)
