    Default Huh? Flame trap?

    I'm already looking forward to the rear main seal replacement. I need to give my back a weekend or 2 off. That concrete garage floor is cold.

    Default Its pretty much as Winfred described by cylinder number

    3 on the intake manifold... its the equivalent to a pcv valve for volvo.. You can usually clean this out with a small drill bit though...
