I got that 92 from my cousin and started fixing her up. So far if done an oil change, along with all the tune up stuff. And Ive replaced all the vacuum lines since they were dry rotted and torn.
One day while letting the car idle this weird thumping noise came outta no where coming from passenger side of the TB when I let off the gas. I found this rubber tube had come off on a test ride I had went on. Put it back on and the noise went away so I went out for another rip.
I really got on it, did a hard pull and a pathetic half donut (need to get rid of the 2.73's....) Got back to the house and it was off again. I dont remember seeing a clamp there. Should there be one? Or am I building too much pressure somewhere?
What exactly am I looking at? I believe its for the A.i.r./smog system?
I also noticed it had blown the vacuum line off the cruise control "unit. Not sure if related or it wasnt on good enough juat thought I'd add.
The can at the bottom is the muffler for the AIR vent. Might want to inspect the muffler to see if it's blocked. Clamping the hose won't fix anything, because it shouldn't be under enough pressure to need a clamp.
Thanks guys I'll take a look at it tonight and make sure its clear. If that muffler is blocked is it something I can clean out or will i need to replace it?
