As long as the hoses were not 20+ years old before storing the car, you should be fine not replacing them. But thoroughly inspect them to be sure.

nah man, don't worry about the hoses. i think if you do everything that they said on the site you posted, that'll be more than enough.

When it says spray the foggin oil into the intake at higher RPM then drop idle and spray the oil continously and allow to stall.... does that mean when i drop the idle and continue to spray a steady stream in it will automaticly just bog out and stall?
