I have a followup question about this. Doesn't the valve cover breather hose attach to the TB BEFORE the throttle plate? Therefore this would not really create a vacuum leak?
I've been told that if I open the oil filler cap OR if I pull the dipstick the idle should change - since mine does not I'm wondering what's going on... Also perhaps I have screwed up and switched the valve cover breather hose and the ICV hose??? Although I don't think that's possible because of the orientation of the fittings on the TB.....
Is the valve cover breather hose attachment on the TB before or after the throttle plate???
