hey as the title says i was driving and noticed my car was idling abit high while warm bout 1200rpm..
i didnt think to much of it until i looked under the bonnet and followed the vaccum line from intake air diaphragm valve located ontop of the manifold to the IAB vaccum tank which i then noticed the nipple has been broken

my question is has anyone had this problem before
can it be fixed or does someone know how to fix for $$?
anyone have a spare IAB to sell which i can replace mine with
very annoying problem since the manifold wont be working properly after 5800

need it fixed asap
car is a dc2

you can probably drill out the broken nipple and insert a metal or brass tube as a replacment. If your tollerences are correct it work do the trick.
