Just got my first Cavalier - Help needed....
Thursday, June 23, 2011 9:54 PM
So I picked up this yellow beast from my neighbor for $400 because it won't run and her parents got her a new car and she didn't want to deal with it.

While the new fuel pump and replacement corner light is being shipped, can you help me decide what to do here?



Yep, thats right, it appears the nipple from the intake box is broken off inside the little hose that goes to the valve cover. Am I stuck replacing the whole intake box, or do I have other options here?

thanks!

Yeah, I posted the same question here when I read some other thread recommending this forum. Ahh well, I probably need all the help I can get because most of the cars I work on are over 15 years old.

Throw one of these http://www.amazon.com/Spectre-3995-Breather-Filtered-Stainless/dp/B000BPUR4I on the valve cover side and cap the throttle body side

the nipple looks to be broken off clean... what exactly would he cap off?
