When you say back to the DV!! I can only see it go to the bottom of the inlet?? It's about 6 inch long

yes, replace that, and the one from the dv to the metal pipe too.. the matal pipe should have two rubber pipes on each end, one to the dv and one to the manifold

Just buy a meter of it of the bay

Will be messing up your fueling and causing a vacuum/boost leak

Follow the metal pipe you took the dv hose from and it'll lead you to the pipe I'm talking about!

The one from the DVD seems good plus the pipe I just got wont fit over the metal pipe!!

And the other 2 seem ok as well

It will if you stretch it!

Title: Re: Can you tell me what this is/what it does
Post by: 150+ on 30 June 2013, 17:02

Fooking hell!! That was a hard pipe to stretch!! I've only been able to get it on about 8-10mm Over the metal pipe do you think it will hold??

Title: Re: Can you tell me what this is/what it does
Post by: jamie16v on 30 June 2013, 17:38

10mm should be plenty, as long as it passes the barb. A bit of spit would have made it easier to slip on.
