I was looking at the stock intake today and noticed on the engine a hole (threaded) that looks like something should be screwed in there but thats empty? I'm just wondering if I am missing something (lol) or that hole is just there for some reason or another: (pic)
what year is that? around 95??

i don't believe anything goes there if it's an older J... like the 95-99 or whatever it is that didn't have the expansion box above the throttle body....

That looks like the OHV ( 2000 + )
When i had my 2k , i never had anything in that hole either, and i was wondering about that too. I wouldn't worry about it.
thnx for the help .. yeah, it's the 2000 OHV
Its the same on my '02 OHV I know it came from the factory like that......but I dont know why, your not missing anything.

It could be that the same valve cover could have been used for a similar engine to cut costs a bit. Rumor has it that the S-10 4-banger has the same valve cover. With the different vehicle, there would be something that would thread into that spot on the valve cover.
96 cavalier.
my hole is empty as well.
...welcome to Crazy World...
Ah yes, I remember that hole on my 99.
And how similar is the s-10 '2200' engine? Is it any different at all?

I have always wondered what that whole was for too. Like they said, probably for the
S-10
