what is this part?? pls help

[90_325ic]

hello, i recently bought a 90 325 and while inspecting the hood i realized that this part was hanging down underneath the intake manifold.

i see a nipple where i believe it goes. it looks like either to the throttle body or the intake pretty close to the throttle body. there's obviously a sensor attached to it. the rubber needs to be replaced in order to stay onto the manifold/t.b.

can anyone pls help identify it? thank you in advance.

That's the evap line. It does go to that nipple on the bottom of the throttle body. You can use a hose clamp to keep it on if needed.

cool, thanks!!

I tried to find it in REALOEM and couldnt find it. Anyone know where i could find one? i would even interested in a good used one if anyone has one they'd like to sell. This ones broken, all soft and wont stay even with the clamp that was already there.

This prolly means that the car was being driven with a small vacumm leak for who knows how long?...on the other, it did come with a BMP adj cam gear and schnitzer pedals :)

just replace it with a piece of vaccum line

costs < $1.00
