What does this little thingy do?
« on: March 05, 2011, 07:18:51 PM »
As part of my disatorous bitch of a day I need to identify this little gizmo  :017:

It normally sits bolted onto the fuel rail and the plastic tube (now broken) heads off to god only knows where.



Basically i set off to replace the thermostat on my 2.7crd. When i tried to move some of the low pressure fuel hoses out of the way, CRACK! , broken  :011:

I ended up with 3 broken ends no obvious spots to push em into except each other. I manged to work out the LP fuel delivery and got the car running but it seems to run fine without this thing!!!!

I suspect its the bit where they attach a pump to bleed the fuel system (ironically as mentioned in another recent thread)

Am i correct and will it run ok without it ????

Cheers folks , your help is much appreciated

Thanks mike  :icon_super: mind at rest now and its staying off .

Tbh the truck seems to be running smoother without it. I was wondering if the pipe had been cracked/leaking and pulling in air however minute prior to my breaking it.

Thanks again.
