    So I was working on my car and I went to do something behind the engine and this hose broke apart, it was very brittle. Right now I have some line that I had laying around on so I could drive it to the dealer. They had no idea what I was talking about and asked for a part number. I have no idea where to begin looking, wondering if anyone knew. It goes from the BBV to the Vacuum manifold on the top of the m90. Anyone have a part number, name, any info on what I need to buy to fix the leak?

    its just regular vacuum hose it supplys vacuum to the bbv to acuate the lever to allow more boost to build up when you step on the throttle more. you can get replacement hose at any auto parts store

    Take the old one in with you. It's probably 7/32 or so. Should cost around $1.50

    I just threw up a little in my mouth.
    Irridium spark plugs last 100k mi and work just as well as copper. Copper is a waste on N/A and only lasts 15k mi. Don't use Platinum.
    Use 195* tstat unless you can thoroughly explain why not; 99.9% don't need a lower temp.
    Almost any oil filter, ever, is of higher quality than ACDelco. Spend $6+.
