Ok, well I put in my 2 cents. Good luck finding OE hoses lol

Right there, on my GL. Original clamps work. It is literally made for vacuum and will handle 75psi of positive pressure. It is oil, fuel, coolant and heat safe. We provide it to 1,000hp+ motors so it’s plenty safe for this application. Only downside (according to others) is that you can see what’s inside, which I’d rather see anyways to know how much condensation is building up and all that good stuff. If it wasn’t safe to use for these types of applications we would not supply it to customers with multi-thousand dollar vehicles. We have sections of hose on an LQ4 LS swapped S-10 making 650hp and has been there for 8 years on our shop truck. It is stained from the oil on the inside but is still working just as good as day 1, no cracking, still as flexible as day 1 on both the vacuum side of a vacuum pump and on the outlet(pressure) side.

Just use some -10 wire spiral pvc vacuum line. You can go to GZMotorsports.com and they have some for sale by the foot, won’t be too much unless you aren’t in North America. The website shows clear braided but it’s actually steel spiral. Oil safe, fuel safe, coolant safe, made for crankcase vacuum, will handle 75psi of pressure. It’s about the same size as the OE hose so the “holders” still hold it Go to gzmotorsports.com, go to accessories, go to hose and fittings, and scroll down till you see it. It’s $2.00 a foot

The PCV system is working flawlessly, I made sure my can has little to no restriction. And as for the hoses I’ll try to find the exact specs. But off the top of my head I can tell you they are safe for 75psi of pressure, and 26 inches of Mercury vacuum. So plenty for this application. It’s the same hose used on ProStock drag racing applications. Oil safe, fuel safe, alcohol safe, and coolant safe. Oh they are 5/8 inside diameter. If it wasn’t safe my boss would not supply it to our customers. Mike Janis actually uses this same hose but a big bigger to give you a name of our type of customer base.

Thanks Bennie! Yes I know it’s stupid but it’s what I like lol, I want to give her a bit of that “wtf is that” flair. And yes the catch can works great! I did stuff it with some steel wool. The hose to the can is filthy and collecting stuff like it should and the hose off that to the PCV is clean as a whistle which is exactly what I was going for. And yes I have done my research, the clear hose on the PCV system is all vacuum and pressure rated and safe for oil fuel and coolant. It’s actually the very same hose the company I work at provides in vacuum pump kits for pro-stock drag cars pushing 1,000+ horsepower. Which is why I’m here asking about fuel hose sizes as I have found a suitable hose but I’m not ordering until I have a for sure size. To me it is my personal science experiment and I like to be different. And as for GD, it’s working just fine and has been for 6 months and is catching impurities that would have normally gone into my intake. She’s running happier, better fuel economy and my oil isn’t getting as dirty as fast. I like clear things. Come clarity. GD if you’d like I can post up more pictures? I’ll bet I give you a stroke seeing this one, if you know what it is anyways… lol

I did not ask for rude comments. This is MY car lol I can do what I want with it. If you don’t have anything helpful to post please move along. I wanted to play around and see what I can put together myself. I think it looks cool so it’s going to stay. It’s not hurting anything or anyone. You’re not the one driving it, I am. And for your information I do not use harbor freight tools.

Hello everyone, if anybody is still active in this part of the site. I am looking for information on all kinds of stuff to do with my EA82 in my 1987 GL wagon, d/r 4wd double manual. I’m looking for the sizes of the fuel lines in the engine bay, and basically any and all other information, bits of cool knowledge, technical notes, parts lists, basically looking to get together a type of encyclopedia of EA82 information that people have discovered over the years. Most importantly is the fuel hoses because I want to replace all of my hoses in the engine bay with clear hoses. The PCV system is all clear hoses now along with an air oil separator in the line. thanks!!

I have the same issue, feels like if I didn’t have the cat it would be backfiring, I can hear and feel an audible “coughing”
