If you have a non eGas car and want to clean the idle control valve as well PM me your address, I mistakenly bought a ICV gasket for my eGas car and the dealer won't take it back.

Other than that, clean it up well, and don't forget to wipe out the intake tubes. It took me 20 minutes, made the throttle response much better, and fixed my bumpy idle. Well worth it!

I'm having trouble getting this hose connector off. Any suggestions?

Got it. Have to push top and bottom exactly centred on the ribbed sections, enough to release it on the sides.

How much oil should there be in that hose? I stuck my finger in it and there was enough to drip off the finger. AOS shot?
