Re: [T3] Red Wire

<x-flowed>Wow, it does run high after warmup. I thought my throttle was sticking 
partially open. But I guess this explains it.

By the way, the car used to warm up slowly and require numerous start 
attempts until I noticed that the breather hose, at 1 o'clock on the oil 
bath, was unconnected to the box underneath the engine. This box has a 5mm 
hose connected to each side of it. The hose on the other side, I assume, 
goes to the left side rear HE elbow. The car now starts right up and idles 
normally on the first try.

What is this box/cylinder called?



Thank you,

Gary Gamboa
