Pic of carb.... want to identify this bit...
Hi, this isnt my carb... but the connector that I have circled red had a hose coming off it. Mine was split and I wondered how this would have effected how my car runs?
What is its purpose?  Thanks. |

Thank u kindly!  I havent had a chance to test it since finding this split! It was a big tear...I'm surprised the pipe even stayed connected as half the pipe was split all the way around underneath where the clip holding it on had torn through.So will this deffo make a difference to performance now and feel more responsive? as It wasnt 100% right.. this will be a result! Thanks Chris. |
