New Pipe ?

[MarcB]

Car is in the garage so its not getting used so i decided to to take the top inlet off as i have another ones thats powder coated and going on along with ordering new bolts from renault.

While taking the top inlet off i had some trouble with one of the pipes that go into the back.
Now i know that its a horse shoe shape clip that goes into this part but i have once again lost it down the engine and I'm sure its burst.
Can i just get another small horse show insert from another clio and pop it back in or do i need to replace the whole pipe ?

I have added pictures below of what I'm missing and also where it does on the inlet.

Thats for the carbon canister mate, you can get a pipe from another , from the CC up to the manifold or, you can block it on the manifold and leave it off

I want it kept on the car as standard and want it working so i will not be disconnecting or blocking it.
I thought it would be as simple as a new small clip from another car.

The pipe for me looks like too much hard work

If you can find a pipe you may be able to replace the clip, the pipe isn't mega hard work, will have the same clip end fastens to the CC mate , easy enough rip off, worth trying find a scraper or breaking for the pipe/clip

There's one up for sale now dude ! Maybe rob the clip?

Just FYI, If you decide to change the whole pipe, it needs to be from a 182, 172 are different. 172 has the same clip though.

If you want just the clip, Pm me and Ill nick it off the Cup I'm breaking.

Went to the scrap yard today and there was a 172 thats been ripped apart.
As said the pipe is different but yet there was a Ph 2 1.2 and that had the same connector so i took that and then found another one so managed to get 2 clips just incase i lose one or snap one again.

Thanks for all the help and info on this
