Hi all. What I was doing was tightening the rt side valve cover bolts as it leaks a small amount of oil while being driven. It needs gasket replacement but I believe I got it for now. Shop wants $900 to 1K to do the work.
On the intake tube there is a pump?? mounted there that the tubing from sensor connects to and appears to continue on into the top of the throttle body.
Anyone know what that does? The hose is very brittle and broke where it pushes onto the pump or whatever that item is. I'm not sure if that line is replaceable. What do you think and what is the purpose of this item? Thanks for any help
