Remove the intake? 96 Accord

[austiger]

Hi,

I am replacing the low-beam passenger headlight and there is a black intake tube next to the battery that needs to be removed first. How the heck do I remove it? Do I just pull it up, like I'm unrooting a weed, and it will come off? It isn't budging.

TIA

Any intake pipe should generally just be held down by some kind of clamp. Just find both ends of it and unclamp it. They may utilize worm clamps where there is a steel band and a screw that tightens and loosens it. Don't just yank, rarely anything in any car is not bolted down somehow. Also be careful, there maybe a vacuum hose attached to the intake piping, that you have to remove as well.

I've got a '95 Accord, I know the tube you're talking about. Just pull on it, it'll come right out. Pull as hard as you need to, you won't break it.
