Feel free to correct me all you want! I'm new to this car and have never seen the engine out of one so I am learning as I go. What your saying makes perfect sense. I saw what appeared to be plain rubber lines without any clamps and quickly jumped to the conclusion they were vacuum. Very glad I asked and didn't mess with them!
This freaking car is killing me. I just spent at least two hours trying to get the threads to catch on that rear allen screw on the back of the AOS. I'm to the point where i think i'll buy a few 1/4 in drive flexible extensions and have someone else turn them with a screw drive handle while I wiggle the allen socket around trying to get it to grab and prey it doesn't cross thread.
