Need a few oddball parts
1. Braided hose under intake manifold, you pull straight down on it, need the entire section.
2. Crankcase breather hose.
3. I believe this is the interior temp sensor, it's located on the drivers side kick panel
4. Not really necessary, but the bezel that holds the light switch and fog light switch.
5. Black rubber heat guard under the shift boot, it plugs the "hole" between the shifter and the open air.
Let me know if you have any of the parts, the more important ones I need asap are the intake manifold hose and the interior temp sensor.
Thanks, Andrew

hahaha, he has a point.
and looking at mine, the hose doesnt look like a factory piece like that. in fact, mine looks like the PO cut some goodyear hose, popped the plastic piece out, and got the car running again. and i've been using it for 2 years and 20(ish) thousand miles.

My current tape job is working fine, but I'd rather just buy a nice used unit. Anyway bump for my other items.

It probably is a mistake. Did you incorporate the little suction line into the bottom like the factory piece?

He's talking about the valve cover breather in this instance...

I don't think so. Look at number 1 in the original post.

PS - Shawn's right about the breather hose. It's not just a hose with a 90 degree plastic fitting in the end. There's a little bit more to it.

Nope, look at the 2nd pic, that's the one with the "tape job".
Also, I know its a different hose. I snag every new one I see at the junkyard. I've replaced this hose on nearly every M30 I've had! My first M30 had a piece of heater hose here, with the vacuum line disconnected and just hanging there. Nice leak...

My bad, I don't know why I thought you were talking about something else. It's all clear to me now . . .

What do I have to swing off your balls because you answered my question, I appreciate the response but I wasn't even talking about the piece you mentioned. Besides, I don't even have the remaing piece with the suction piece in it, it's gone. Manny if you can get me these parts I'd be grateful, but my number one concern is the hose under the intake manifold so that's the piece I'm really looking for.

Yes, you were asking about the piece in question, smart guy. You even used the same picture both times, with the piece circled this time. Is #1 not the same here as in the other thread? So, that pic is not of YOUR car?

Shawn, I think his "tape job" was on the valve cover breather, not the interior temp sensor line.
If you're concerned about that spot on the manifold and vacuum leaks, cover it over until you get your part. A bit of duct tape or packing tape will do nicely unless your intake manifold is absolutely encrusted in filth.

I was referring to his "

IS THAT CLEAR NOW, FOLKS? DAMN...
