Ice White Socks 0 Posted February 21, 2004 Hello, Spent last weekend cleaning out the ISV and throttle body to clear a stalling problem. What I did notice was a broken valve that was on a pipe from the rocker cover going into the inlet elbow pipe- the pipe had sheared off where it entered the valve on the rocker side. It looks to my untrained eye like a one way rocker breather valve. I did a good job of bodging back up with cable ties and instant gasket. I phoned the stealer who couldn't tell me what it was or did ( :roll: ), but that it had to be bought with the complete elbow pipe assembly (£80 :( ) To be fair they didn't even sound to sure on that. Does any one know what it is, and if it can be bought separately. Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted February 21, 2004 Yeah that's a filter. Has a fine metal guaze in it to stop 'bits' getting into the throttle body. Mine sheared off at the main inlet hose....so had to buy the whole sodding thing! K Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stormseeker 0 Posted February 22, 2004 I did a good job of bodging back up with cable ties and instant gasket. Noticed mine had gone too :shock: when doing the water pump last week - I did good job of plastic/rubber welding it back together with an old soldering iron... will be off to the ford dealer tomorrow.... :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted February 23, 2004 Cool...an elite crowd of Soldering iron plastic welders! I had to do some on Saturday to fix my number plate surround, which snapped and broke in a few places! Plastic welded it up, sprayed it Ice Grey and slapped it back on with loads of gunk.....you'd never know :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
