Hose diameter (stock NIKKI)
Hi all-
I was curious if someone could give me a dimension for a hose on the stock NIKKI carb. I remember that there was a hose that was cut/melted when i was working on installing my RB header, and thinking back on it, I think that I have a huge vacuum leak, and the motor is not missing an apex seal on rotor 2. I'd go and look myself, but right now i'm 550 miles away (it's stored in my grandpa's barn at the moment), and it's bothering me while i'm working on a term paper.
The hose that i'm referring to is the one that goes from the anti-afterburn valve 2 to the intake manifold. A picture was posted recently that points that hose out, and I'll attach it for reference to what i'm talking about. This picture triggered me thinking that is the hose that was open, the same hose that my uncle stuck a bolt into and put a hose clamp around it when he was "helping" me work on my car (i put helping in quotation marks because he tried to work on my car the way that he works on his field trucks, and took a ~3.5 foot breaker bar and tried to rip off the factory heat shielding, rather than just breaking off the heads of the bolts with a ratchet and removing it like a sane person). Thanks for the help.

Not sure of the size. I'll measure it today if I get a chance. The hose tends to melt on the bottom. I'v'e been able to remove the hose and wrap it with electrical tape for a quick repair. I'd order the hose from Mazdatrix. It's only a few bucks and a new one will fit perfectly and last a long time.
