broken air injector tube

[DShort]

I removed the mid pipe and was trying to get the tube off coming from the smog pump and broke. I have shorty headers to go on and a X pipe with the tube capped off already, but I had planned on using the smog pump since the car is stock. What should I do?

You can add a piece of rubber hose to splice the connection back together...

Where are you located, I think I have a few in my scrap pile at the shop.

I can't use rubber, its broke 3" before it gets to the exhaust pipe. I'm in Texas.

You can't do this

If I get another piece of small pipe welded in. I broke my air injector tube about 3" inches from the exhaust pipe tube, it might be to hot in that area and melt/burn the rubber is what I meant.

3" is plenty. That rubber can take the heat. I have mine hooked up like that and it's prob only 3" away.

It is heater hose...which is designed for 200* coolant to pass through.

Okay, Thanks

Remove the smog pump and run a short belt.
