Intermittent engine bogging/turning off problem

[kronus]

Vacuum leak from the pictured hose.

I went to Lowe's and grabbed 3/4" OD heater hose. It's worked for 3K miles, but I have a stock replacement on order. Look through all your hoses and make sure they aren't cracked.

i checked all the hoses and none seem to be cracked. on a side note where is the pcv valve? does this motor have one? is it incorperated into the valve cover?

[kronus]

The ICV (I assume you meant ICV) is a metal cylinder that's connected by a short hose to the back of the intake manifold, and a long hose to the intake boot.

[mikegar]

no i know what the idle control valve is. what i am refering to is the pressure control valve, i think it should be connected to the hose that runs from the valve cover to the throttle body.

[kronus]

Hmm, there is no valve there for me.. the hose just runs from the VC to the throttle body, uninterrupted.

well i figured out what the problem was. im an idiot. when putting the head back on i didnt put injector #6 on firmly so under certian conditions it would become loose and loose contact, till today when it finally came off. pushed it til i heard a click and now it runs fine.
