Hello. I have a 87 Accord DX Carb AT. My car surges when accelerating from 2nd to 3 gear. In the Haynes troubleshooting, the first item to check is air intake leaks. What I saw was the hose that connects the air cleaner to air suction valve is very loose, so loose in fact I can shake it off very easily .
It turns out that the reducer/coupler thing that attach to the ends of the long hose are broken. I tried duct-taping and zip tying but it didn't work too well. I think I would need to buy aftermarket ones because those are discontinued. Anybody have run into this problem and can recommend sizes/parts? On ebay I see that the hoses I need are expensive. It seems the smaller they are the more they cost and they are for turbo/super chargers.
