My car is running better now, and I have replaced the KS, plugs, fuel filter, air filter, O2 sensor, and one fuel injector. I am still wondering if I have to take off the intake plenum to check the rear injectors or not. Does anyone know what the best bet is for replacing the vacuum hose on the motor? Is the colored stuff as durable as OEM hose? Also, is it worth it to sand down the grounds on the motor? Let me know, and where is the best place to get vacuum hose and how many feet do I need. Lots of questions here, sorry.

there is a harness on the side of the motor that you can check the injectors with (found it after I replaced mine, but it was bad anyhow)
Do you really want to put some colored hose under the hood of your car? do you plan on showing the car or drivong with the hood off?
Sanding/cleaning the grounds definitely won't hurt as long as you're careful.

The best bet for replacing vaccum hose on the motor is to take it off and run to the local store and get the size you need plus alittle extra.

The only time I drive with my hood off is if it flies up (only happened once, but on another car) so no, I don't really show it or anything but It would look better and if I am planning on replacing it anyway I might as well make it look good too.
