Ello all~

Does anyone, by chance someone not in california, have a good set of Smog hoses laying around they want to get rid of if not already gone~

I have been to most of the JY's around my area and have only found 2 Luv's with slim pickings..., Im ready to get my lil Luv smogged but need a few hoses minus the holes/cracks...,

ALL CALI LUV OWNERS~ we need to start a petition to get the smog law switched back to +30 yrs exempt!!! Who's with me??? :lol:

Yes our smog laws suck. If you can tell me what ones you want, I can look to see if I can find some

SRAD, I would love a hard line setwhen you get a prototype up and fab'ed. But that'll be later down the road.

I need the smallest elbowed hose coming from the back of the smog pump to the bypass valve right underneath/behind the smog pump. But would like to replace all the hoses for a better condition set.

Just to be clear, it seems there is one nipple on the bypass valve that didn't come with a hose?


Thank you all for your responses~

I had to make mine. I believe I used 5/8" ID hose and 1/2" copper 90's and a bunch of hose clamps. I will be posting pictures on the project forum this weekend if you want to see how I did it.
