Hi all just looking around my engine bay convinced ive got an air leak. And found that pipe with nothing connected to it? comes off the pass side of the engine. should there be a pipe on there? where does it go? and what is this for and what problems will it cause my vehicle?

 

Regards Andy

 

p.s. its near numbers 24 and 17 in the engine pic

im pretty sure thats the EGR feed. as long as the egr has been removed and the pipe is blocked shouldn't be a problem

Andy, hope the advice helped, have a look at this too.

thanks stu going to go start her up.

Hi all,

 

After speaking to stu about this pipe i noticed that the pipe that went to the balance bar should have gone to this pipe and the one that should go to the balance bar was floating around with a bolt blanking it off. the pipe are now in the correct places but the vehicle is missfiring badly will it take time to adjust?

sorry that link didnt work.

i would say it was blanked off for a reason. as i said earlier im pretty sure thats where the feed to the egr is (can't check on mine to be certain as mine went in the scrap pile when i had engine out). if that is the egr feed then oviously its shot.

tbh i'd just put it back how it was if the car runs worse
