thats a vsv. if it was near the back of the engine, its for the egr and if near the front, for the fpr
stole this from cygnusx1's tsrm page. from this pic you can see there are two vsv's, and iirc they are different so dont get them confused.

thanks those pitures help a bit, the strange thing is i noticed on trsm that the vsv at the rear has a small tube coming off it leading to the 45 degree angle solid line, mine has a long piece of tubing which came from the top of the plenum.??? whys mine different?? yet again.

the trsm shows that the tubing mine goes to is incorect.

if people could give a few pics to me of this part of the car and sourrounding pictures so im can use wsome as guidance when putting everything back together. the more the merryier.

Cool my 2 cents

i'd replace them with new ones
they don't seem like much but they do effect the air/fuel mixture
where they bolt or hang from isn't as important
