WTB: Stock intake rubber tubing - Toyota Yaris Forums

spkrman · 01-26-2007, 10:53 PM

I had a "sure fire" way to get my "custom" intake to work without a CEL... well, long story short... I'm in need of a new stock intake rubber tube :)

anyone that has theirs and wants to get rid of it/was gonna throw it out, let me know.

lol... :(

well I found a nifty MAF holder tube at pep boys, which i assumed would work perfect... long story short, i was so sure it would work that I trimmed down the stock rubber piping to fit the MAF holder/filter... well... for whatever reason, the car dies out after started when that thing is installed. I'm not quite certain, the airflow is actually very wide open, but it acts like it did on my first attempt with the intake, and bending the stock rubber tubing choked it off... but now, its perfectly straight, wide open, and with a better filter... looked solid too, I thought it was gonna work.

ECU reset, remount, lots of duct tape later... no luck. I'm still not sure why it wont work, but my fugly old PVC setup worked fine?

Frustrated to say the least... the stock airbox barely fits back into place, took some muscling to get it to attach, but it doesnt seat properly now.

Missing my PVC setup, its a turd on the highway stock, and the highway is where I mostly drive, and thats where the intake helped the most... sick of staring at the CEL though.
