i was thinking just now, that the hose that i bought, might not be stiff enough, and is weaking out, and pinching the hose with the force of the vacuum..maybe..dunno...hmmmm

it's my D in a B
what kinda hose connectors? There are some sub-standard ones out there.
I was putting my roommates new fmic on his saab with him yesterday, and there was a major leak... Turns out we forgot to switch out the pipe that had the water injection bung on it. Oops. h:
