Hose Question

[sccrAdidas15]

yo quick question, what is the bottom hose that attaches to the intake pipe. I know the top one is the valve breather, but where does the bottom one lead to and what does it do?

There should be three nipples on the intake pipe. The biggest one goes to the charcoal canister under your battery, the middle sized one goes to the valve cover, and the really small one goes to your bcs which is on the pannel under your filter

Let's not forget the extra large one for the BOV.

The previous owner probably removed it from the intake and put a filter at the end of it, to be sure, post a picture of it.

no its still there i just wondered what the point of it was, b/c aftermarket intakes dont have that they just have the hole for the dump tube off the BOV.

No bumping threads (replying to your thread for the sole purpose of moving it to the top of the forum for more exposure). If your question doesn't get answered, it's either because you didn't provide enough info, your profile isn't filled in, or you asked a question that was already answered in our FAQ forum.

Do not use the BB IMG code to make it display inline, use the BB URL code instead. Why you ask? Page load times and display reasons. Large images cause slow load times and cause the page to be displayed funny for most people.
