I've broke it, but what is it and what does it do?

:roll: :lol:

It screws in to block on the front airbox sid. 1 of the pipes goes into the air intake pipe.

Cheers!

 

LOL - common breakage. AFAIK it's something to do with the emissions control. Wouldn't worry too much, I've been running mine broken for months. Just put it back and make sure the holes are sealed somehow.

This is so common I knew what I was going to see before I opened the thread..

The general trick is to push the hose off rather than pulling it off although I'm sure there are times when it can still break.

That is a intake air bypass control thermal valve which gives injectors extra air when the engine is cold. Has something to do with the cold emissions.

I do have a complete water outlet including that valve for sale (you can't buy the valve separately). New in spare parts bag, £70 shipped. If someone needs one, just pm me.
