im having a leak somewhere around the middle to the left of my engine bay. its a high screeching sound...as the idle bounces back and forth between 1,000-2,000 rpm...when i turn off the car...the screeching fades away and dies with it. Sound fimuliar?

 

its a vacuum line. If Im thinking correctly it would plug into the intake itself.

lol no i mean its connected to whatevers on the other side of that hose...its a big square black **** that looks like a intake box. the connector of this thing is turnable...is it suppose to be? maybe its cracked and leaking from there? cus all i hear is something SCREECHING like *** and its coming from the middle of my engine bay.

 

ohhhhh thats your return line your talking about then. You disgard that when you install an aftermarket intake. it will plug into the box itself and then into the block below the throttle body.

that help?

yes helped a little...thanks whats the black box called?

 

That should go to the EGR valve, but I've never seen one on a Honda that was a "big black box". Do you have any better pics of the "black squary ****" in question? I'm thinking possibly the IAB(intake air bypass) solenoid and/or vacuum tank.

 

egr valve eh...i dont know its not big...its just a small black box with 2 nipples..and 1 of the nipple is broken! i just tried to seal the broken nipple with some sealant...and still it leaks! why?

 

err valve?

 

whats this **** called!

 

omg u guys are funny

that hose connects to the EGR valve

 

thats connects to a pcv valve, then the pcv valve connects to that small black box behind the block.

wow, 7 replies to get the right answer. Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve. And yes, hooks up to your "breather box" on the block

yay!!! i got it right

 

The hose connecting to your PCV valve might be kinked. When I installed a Skunk2 intake manifold on my car, I used a piece of Autozone hose to connect the PCV with and it developed a kink and caused a stupid screeching noise and an idle fluctuation (although not as bad as you describe). Rigged a new hose from some OE Honda hose bits and all is well.

Mabey its just me, but isint that a cam seal in the picture??? i think

 

WTF ?

do you even know what a breather box looks like ?

obviuosly if I went to the site and got that pic I would have looked at the description

2. if you took time to think about it then you would realize that could not possibly work as a cam plug

a cam plug
