Hey guys,

Some of you may know that this summer I'm renewing all of the idle and air hoses this summer. I'm half way into the job, but I honestly cannot find one of the hoses anywhere, not even the EPC.

I circled it in [red] this stock image I found online; mine had a huge hole in it, and now that I've replaced it with a piece of straw, idle has smoothed out, but runs high. When I covered the hole in the old tube with my thumb, it was spot on at 700 rpm in Park. Also, I have seen images of this hoses attachment points plugged off. Is that the revised procedure?

EDIT: And by circle it, I mean I circled the assembly its on. its in the right of the circle, connecting the two black elbow hoses that go to the IACV.

Thanks for the help guys,

Carlen
