Check the Tech forum sticky for info on servicing and what is required. Idle problems can also be caused by clogged vacuum lines to.
I bought my car on 218,000 now its 220,300 so its hard to say what previous owner did, but im sure it needs a service.Quote:

But i think i read sometimes you get that?
The one from your rocker cover to the intake isn't a vacuum line but rather a breather. Some oil in there is normal.
Lol thanks again...Quote:

and the sticky in the tech section was very useful so thanks again :thumbsup:
Just go and turbo your car now
Always keep this hose,don't put a breather valve (small air filter) on if you want your engine to last.Quote:

thx fatboyz, but its too late, its already back on ....
cant turbo yet, everything isnt together yet.
I might just change oil for now, turbo would be in less then 1000KM, so ill change the oil again + filter when i turbo it.
and beeza, thats what i havent worked out yet. I cant exactly keep that hose there when i turbo it, because its meant to have a negative air pressure for it work properly isnt it?
I'm not sure about Turbo's...
