    Hi guys what is the little black and yellow thing that sits inline in the Vaccum line that has a feed from the air box on it ?

    I need one because where the air box Vaccum hose feeds into it,it has snapped

    Where can I buy one ?

    Sorry for the poor description

    Hopefully you guys know what I'm on about

    Paul

    its a non-return valve. you could cap off the airbox feed as its only for the warm air feed, which does bugger all really in the uk climate. ive had mine disconnected for years. put some aldrite or something over the hole and leave it to set, that should sort it
