No you're not. Mine used to look that way when I bought it.

Then I changed it to this:

Then I finally changed it to this:

*NOTE: The coils were changed from Magnavox (Shown) to Delco/Remy instead*

I honestly don't remeber, as it was an emergency repair (I barely got to work) and the cost was not my priority. If it'* not broken, it shouldn't be that hard to deal with. It just screwed in.

It was a smaller hose (inch or so) the fed into the left of the upper part of the engine. Kida hard to see the fitting from the top, it was behind the belt and pulleys.

I just looked at 92 LeSabre at Chiltons Online. Yours may not even have this fitting, jusdgung by what I can find. I can't even remember what year mine was right now...

Check out this link. This is what I was talking about!

If that doesn't work, go to this thread, and click through his album til you find the first pic with a yellow arrow.

Thanks to stevej94 for unintentionally helping out!!
