Title: Part Number Hunt
Post by: TheNeek on February 11, 2008, 12:01:40 PM
I'm bringing my M42 back up to snuff in my E21.  First thing is vac lines.  I ordered everything on RealOEM I could find.  I have a late model M42 with the heating TB (heating elements removed).  Help me find the last two lines I need to finish.  They are the last two breather lines after the one circled.  They lead up to the bottom barb of the TB.  I can't find them on realoem.

Goes from part 11 to the TB.  There are two lines, and one right angle barb.

Pic of carnage for fun, you can see the hose I have on the far left:

Indeed it does help.  Funny.  The hoses I have look nothing like that.  I mean I have the one on the ICV circuit on the rear side of the motor (number 25), but the one on the front side doesn't look like that.

I would just pick up some silicone hoses the right size.  The stock setup is ridiculous.

The angled barbed fitting on the bottom of the throttle body goes to the valve cover vent and the angled one on the left side of the throttle body under the throttle position sensor goes to the charcoal cannister.

I've already replaced everything.  Besides.  It's not that bad with the upper intake manifold off.
