Tried putting on my CAI
well for the first time i tried doing a mod to the engine... i wouldn't say it was a huge failure but i didn't get it completed... as i said before i purchased the CAI from chromeintakes bundled with a K&N filter. I was able to disasemble all the stock things in my truck, just as the directions said. When it came to the part where i was supposed to instal the crank case vent hose, i had no clue what to do... all it said was "(put the blue hose into the Black hose)."
so what i ended up doing was putting it all back together, which surprised me that i could actually do it.
so can anyone give me better directions on how to complete that part? I think if i can figure that out then i'll try it again by myself to see if i can do it all
as always, thanks for your help

well then, maybe i'll give that a shot tomorrow, kinda frustrated now that i could have just done it all instead of put it all back together, but hey, any practice i can get with anything up there near the engine is a plus

I think it's the oil breather hose. There should be a hose running to the stock air box (that's the breather hose you need to connect to), here is a pic of derrick's from his album so maybe it will help you https://dodgeforum.com/forum/members...24-engine.html

yea...you'll see that in my picture (that's my old intake) that the blue hose after getting warmed up so many times got really flexible and what not, and no longer curved, but simply bent/folded over itself. go to autozone, and get some hard corde heater hose that has a real nice wall, so that it won't do that...
but here's my question to you...did you get the stock air box bracket off? or did u leave it bolted to fender?
