Just a heads up to those not in the know. Im sure all the verterans here have either delt with it or know about it. I found that one thing and it was a hose that runs from the back of the upper intake manifold directly underneath it to the idle controle valve. I have the M42 if your wondering. Takes less than an hour to replace if you know what your doing. Just remove one end of the hose that runs from the PCV valve, remove your intake boot then your upper intake manifold. Try not to lose or damage your IM gasket or just replace it while you are there. You dont have to disconnect everything from the IM. Just move it enough so that you can get under it. Be sure to put everything back and dont over torque your bolts. That simple.
