Sorry, im a noob. When i connected the breather hose to the nipple on the intake, it seemed really loose like the inner diameter of the hose was too large for the nipple. Should it fit snuggly before I clamp it down? And the other hose I was talking about was the hose for the intake manifold to the throttle body.

But ya, I think there are some cracks in the breather hose. I noticed a kind of residue on my windsheild after a few days of driving (near where the breather hose is, at the bottom of the windsheild). And it kind of seems like I lost hp.

Any ideas?
