    Can somebody identify these hoses..

    After months of cooling/heating and surging idle issues, I finally have located the issue.. After warm up at idle (idles at 2500RPM btw), my car leaks hella coolant. Had several mechanics check it out that have all bs me around (one changed some hose which apparently wasn't the one leaking). So today I went under the car myself after the leak started and noticed the leak on the left underside of the intake manifold or throttle body. I will go ahead and assume that is also why I've had the extremely high idle. In the pic, the pink arrows point to the hose that is actually leaking at the clamp. The two smaller hoses to the side of it (green arrow) show no signs of leaking but I wouldn't mind having those changed also. The yellow arrow points to the hose in which the coolant has been leaking down on. The darkest (newest) hose behind the arrow is the hose that the shop changed. Can anybody tell me exactly which hoses I need to ask for to replace these? I would really appreciate it.

    At this point, all the hoses that haven't been replaced are likely in similar condition to the one that it currently leaking. You'll end up draining the system anyway - change them all. The picture below should help figure out where the hoses go. If I interpret your picture correctly, the hose with the pink arrow is #4. Most are still available from Honda.

      Most are still available through aftermarket sources too, and they are not expensive.

      I just had one of those hoses rupture on my 92. Replace them all so you don't have to worry about it. Be warned that it's not a fun job because access is limited.

        Does aftermarket have the smaller molded hoses? I just bought a set through my local dealer and they weren't too expensive (20% discount). It is a little easier for me - the head is off the one I'm working on.

          Awesome, that helps tons! I will be looking into aftermarket sources. For all of the hoses on that diagram through Honda, it was roughly $135. Not much but if I can find them cheaper, why not. Since I have the high idle, the most critical hose would probably be the fast idle control correct?

          Here is what I just bought.. http://www.ebay.com/itm/161992488943
          I'm pretty sure that has everything I need.
