Hey all,
Finally located a boost leak that's been haunting me for a few weeks......it's the hose between the intake tube and the ISV and the throttle body, at the rear top of the motor. It's about 2-3 inches long, and has three holes......two larger diameter between the intake and the throttle body, and one smaller that leads to the ISV. Any part #'s, proper name, sources, $'s, and such would be much appreciated. It's probably called something simple, like the "throttle body hose" and is dealer only for many $'s, but I'm drawing a blank at the moment. Thanks!
BTW, anyone ever had any luck with sealing an intake hose leak with some rubber bonding adhesive, like a Shoo Goo or Rubber Raft glue, even for a temporary fix? I'm tempted, especially if it's a high dollar dealer only part, but don't want to screw anything up. Any BTDT, or reasons why I shouldn't try it on this one?
Thank in advance....
