Nope most likely you got a shopping bag caught on the exhaust. It is a very common occurrence on our cars.

Yourself? You cannot do it without a machine shop. You will mess up the balance of the wheels.

Yeah catch can and I will reroute. Even though I got the new motor mine is not rerouted to the UIM. Any idea what the second piece is? For $20.00 you get no directions but it's surprisingly pretty well put together.

My first thought was a check valve but now I am stumped. My best guess would be Extra stop or pass thou for any vacuum lines that may or not need it.
