What's this called

[jbuck1975]

What is it and what does it do? Is it suppose to look like crap inside? Is the small hose supposed to connect to something? Mine has a screw plunging it up

well that is supposed to be a blue traced hose that connects to the blue solenoid on the firewall. It is part of the Exhaust Gas Recirculation system.

Ok. I know what tube you mean. It's connected to one of the carb connectors

I knew this car was probably put together wrong. I've only had it month and half. These hoses are all screwed up I bet. Is that part suppose to have gunk built up in it?

I am trying to upload some pictures in photobucket for you. Some may help you. If not I can get you some really good ones tomorrow.

How do I know which motor this is? Are they all the same. Is this motor from a different car? I'm confused

88-89 4-speed cars are carby's. I am assuming that is what you have. I own an 88 carby and have a customers 89 carby out here to but the vacuum lines are all identical.

[jbuck1975]

Yeah 89 4 speed. Carb

The white metal thing on the side of the air cleaner is called Ford Pulse Air System. It's part of the emission contols. A search of the Internet (Google) will display an explination of what it does. I keep forgetting.

it's a passive A.I.R. system, it's there to feed oxygen to the cat to keep it lit and working properly. the one hose works a baffle to pump filtered air to the other tube that goes to the second half of the cat.

Sorry guys, I'm not getting messages saying I got a reply. So that part shouldn't be corroaded inside then.
