Remove the hose from car heat with hot water carefully squeeze over :naughty:

Dont use tools to force it or you will split hose :icon_evil

it's a really tight fit. but it does work

I used a lot of vaseline, my stomach, and a flat head..

Not all in that order, of course.

Grease it up.

Be a man and force it on.....Depending on condition of accordian hose, it isn't too bad.

best idea right here.

buy a new hose from toyota, its $32. a used one will more than likely split. and actually after 8 months or so when i went vpc i noticed small cracks starting to develop. a hardpipe replacement is the best bet.

I second that... this is exactly what I did. Still running with the rubber though...

1. Buy new hose.
2. Dip finger in motor oil.
3. Apply motor oil to outside of AFM and inside of hose.
4. Push them together.

It's actually pretty easy if you just lube it up a bit.

can use a hair dryer to heat up the end and soften it up also
