Default Help with getting....

Hello Tech

I'm trying to figure out how to get at and replace a vaccum hose located on the left/bottom side on the intake (left when facing the vehcle). It's right under the coolant hose coming from the engine and looks like it's has an elbow. I'm looking and don't know whats the best approch nor what it may entail. Please expertise is greatly apreciated....

I use 2 pair of long needle nose pliers.One straight pair and a 90 degree pair.Use a razor to slice the old elbow to get it off.Then us the 90 degree pair to hold the plastic hose and the straight pair to slide the elbow on.

Tip: add a little grease to the elbow before sliding on.It will help it slide on very easy.
