    Dont worry about that line anymore. After i took my rails off and made sure the o rings were fine and put it back together. I was reconnecting vacuum lines and twisted that one wrong and the vacuum line broke off the opposite end that has a connector on it. So now i may as well get the part from GM. I really don't understand what all these vacuum lines and connectors do in the back of the engine or the bracket that holds a connector that looks like it has two bolt holes on it, then there is the one that looks like a fpr but its not, thats the one that has the connector on it. it also has a bolt hole with a tapered edge to fit on something. I was literally sitting in the engine bay on top of the engine and battery for a half hour trying to figure this **** out. Then i finally said **** it, then went to turn the key and what do you know. The fuel still leaks out of the injector. Stressed??? Words can't even describe this piece of **** car. I can't get putting time in life away to fix these problems that are so obvious for others to figure out. It all seems like its not that hard, but this car is a nightmare compared to other hondas i have built and turboed. Inline 4 cylinders are so less complicated than this bull****.

    Im not being a dick here but the bold is 110% the problem here. Research the cars until you DOOOOO understand and the frustration level will be back to zero! Its impossible to mod what you don't understand! Not understanding and getting pissed will only make it worse, I promise you that. Then once you do figure it out something will be so painfully simple you'll be pissed you didn't get it in the first place. Its a vicious cycle. STOP THE CYLCE by first learning and THEN modding.

    The above also avoids having to rely on some other clown doing the work for you plus you'll be forced to learn or break sh1t maybe both.

    BTW all those vac lines can be unfvck with some simple t and splice fittings from any parts store and some new vac lines of the proper size. There is a thread on here somewhere on how to replace the entire vac line system with fresh lines and fittings.
