Hi guys

Noobie DIY error here, i yanked the BOV vacuum too hard and it pulled off the other side from under the TMIC

whats the best way to plug it back in?
DO i have to take off my TMIC?

(pulled off the hose in yellow from other side)

I wouldnt stress over it, just take the intercooler off and connect the hose again, maybe add a zip tie to keep it from happening in the future.


Probably a great time to clean your throttlebody and intercooler from all the oil that must be inside .
