near the egr valve, on the last intake runner, thier is this L fitting coming up where a hose should be fitting over it.

what is this and should i plug it or osmehting?

 

Its probably the T for the hvac and, I *think* egr lines. Been awhile since ive looked back there but you shoudl check to see whats not hooked up if theres nothing there.

 

theirs nothing around, ive done the rerouting of the heat control valve.

i dont think i remember touching that though.

hmm nothing laying around to attach.

 

Didnt see that its an L shaped fitting when I first read the post. It could be for the egr. I remember there being some rubber elbows for the vacuum solenoid. Might also be for the heater valve. There is a line that comes off of the head that supplies vacuum to the heater valve. Might want to follow everything (EGR, HVAC) and make sure its all hooked up. If the egr is hooked up and the HVAC works then just cap it off I suppose.

 

i did cap it off and i cant find anything. if i unscrewed it, it would be a direct hole into th eintake manifold.

if i had a camera i would take pics.

 

Oh, doh! I thought you where talking about a small rubber fitting or something. That should be hooked up. That supplies vacuum to your power brake booster. How did it run with nothing hooked up to it? I imagine someone must have put something inside that jambed it up or it filled with carbon deposits (somewhat hard to beleive, though). If it was jsut open it would cause the cylinder that that runner feeds to pretty much go dead and the others around it to be lean.

 

well appearently ive been running it without it plugged for osme time now..

but i just pluged it for now, no difference in the car.. breaks always have worked fine.

and ive left a spark plug wire disconnected before.. not a pretty drive.

so i dunno.

i wanna know what it is though.

maybe ill draw a picture since i dont have a camera?
