had a problem with BF running rough & we reckoned [3 of us] it was a vacumm leak [sounded like a 'chaff cutter'. well pulled the top of the manifold off & i have no idea of any problems, so i'm waiting for the brother-inlaw to tell me what he reckon's [?]. i spotted this 'hose' and could not tell where it goes to??. anyone know what it's for?? it's in middle of pic next to the nut/bolt. thanks
could NOT have got to it without taken the manifold off any way ..... with the gas system lines there & the PCM . . not much room to view. thanks |

have taken one off the AU1 parts car. chucked it on the multimeter to check it's ohm range & it measures in the BF range, plus has same plug [comparing visually!] so it will going in shortly. hope it's easy to get the broken piece of the line mount solenoid somewhere 'solid' & refit upper intake manifold ..... have a gasket [not original metal gasket] so do i need ta put a 'small' amount of sealant on it 1st before fitting??

You shouldn't really need anything else (its the paper/cardboard type?)if mating surfaces are flat-i have one I'll be using too.can anyone elaborate if this correct?
After your ruff running post-I noticed same noise + ruff idle you mentioned (in my ute) & sure enough broken hose to charcoal canister

after fixing broken solenoid, still had problems with a slight rough run/idle ..... changed throttle body assembly with BA unit [known working unit] no fix .. next up was changing accelerator assembly .. but tried the ignition coils. replaced no. 6 first- no change ... changed no. 4 as well- no change .. changed no. 3 as well- no change ... then changed no. 1 - eureka blooody faulty ignition coil/s currently running four of the previous units that were in the car when bought
Moral of the story IS .............. don't buy the ebay units |
