On a 1992 Acura Vigor, hoses connected to the electronic distributor typically include vacuum advance hoses and possibly a PCV (positive crankcase ventilation) hose. The vacuum advance hose connects to the intake manifold to help improve engine performance by advancing the ignition timing under certain conditions. If equipped, the PCV hose helps manage engine emissions by routing crankcase vapors back into the intake system.
They are just vent hoses for the distributor and they hide under the fuel rail cover.
it realy depends on where the leek is located. need to know that first. is it in the radiator? the hoses? the water pump? heater core? or the head gasket itself leaking? need to know first before giving an acurate answer.
It is important to have a diagram when making any changes to a car. A diagram for an Acura Integra's vacuum hoses can be found in the cars maintenance manual.
possibly your hoses. Washer fluid will deteriorate your hoses. Check into that.
remove dist.cap.unplug wires and hoses mark rotor where it is pointing...remove holddown bolt remove dist.
There are no ECM hoses. The ECM is the Electronic Control Module.
i had the same problem with oil leaking too, i tried all kind of stop leak. but only "lucas" oil stop leak worked, haven't leaked since. My 92 Vigor had the same issue. It was initially diagnosed as a leaking oil pan gasket. I brought it to Acura and was advised that the leak came from the oil filter adapter assembly seal and not the oil pan gasket. To access this part, the front differential assembly had to come off along with the return hoses.
To install an optical distributor for a Daewoo Matiz, first, ensure the engine is off and cool. Remove the engine cover and disconnect the battery for safety. Locate the old distributor, disconnect any wiring and vacuum hoses attached to it, and unbolt it from the engine. Install the new optical distributor in the same position, reconnect the wiring and hoses, and finally, reattach the engine cover and battery before starting the engine to check for proper operation.
check distributor cap and rotor ,spark plug wires ,vacuum hoses
This is not an easy job for the inexperienced, or someone who does not have another car to drive while this is being done. remove fans, radiator, belts, hoses pullies and such. I would recommend having the acura "water pump" package done where they replace the timingbelt, tensioner, water pump, VC gasket and valve adjustment. This job is worth it's weight in gold!
If you have a manual transmission and a centrifugal advance distributor, you don't have any. If you have vacuum advance on your distributor, there's one vacuum hose running from the side of the carb to the distributor. If you have an automatic transmission, you've got a hose from the intake manifold to the control valve.
Next to the firewall on the passenger side of the car. Should be black with two hoses comming off of the top.
