WTD: EFI Vitara inlet pipe

Post by antt »

well, found out today what is probably the source of my fuel drama's. there's a hole in the intake tube between the airbox and the motor, and this seems as though it was causing the computer to run real lean.

anyway, i need a new or secondhand on cause suzuki the ripoff c*nts want $128 for a new pipe. fark that.

Can't you just tape it up? :) I know it sounds like a silly thing to say but... I thought I should say it anyway :D

Careful that you actually use tape that's going to resist the temperatures though! surely it's possible to patch it up somehow... as you can see in the pic, mine has a lot more area for holes to develop ;) was considering taping it up with insulation tape (temperature insulation I mean!) but hadn't considered the possibility of holes being in the tube... any idea how it got there :?:
