Dec 1 Posted August 17, 2005 My car seems to have had a vacuum line removed from the airbox/Tb before I bought it!! When comparing it to a similar engine I noticed mine is missing the 3mm line running from low on the engine side of the airbox from a small round section, up to the underneath of the inlet duct just before the throttle body, where it has just been blocked off!!!! (description prob doesn't make much sense! I'll take some photos when I get my hands on my camera!!) Anyway does anybody got any ideas why this would be removed? and should I replace it?

Geo 0 Posted August 17, 2005 How about the fact that your alternator seems to have been removed as well dec? I'd be more worried about that tbh :D ........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
