Hey the other day I went to get my 1988 Silverado smogged and the guy said it wouldnt pass because Im missing a part. Its a part from the exhaust manifold to the air intake housing. I was wondering if anybody knows exactly what type of hose this is and where I can find it.

Go to an auto parts store and tell them just that and they will have one. Just measure the inside diameter. It is the heated air duct.

Usually called pre-heater hose at the parts house

junkyard will have billions of them


also try a heating and cooling shop

they may have something that small

possibly


if not then make one out of some kind of aluminum flexible stuff


im sure glad theres no emissions testing or inspections here

since 1982 or so


good luck
